Hey, Joe- it's good to have you back!

I only taste test in the kitchen where I will also jot down least a brief note after each tomato. Not usually just one taste, though. I'd say I average 3 tries/variety before I give up. I'll vary how ripe I allow the fruit to get, try it at different points in the season, etc. if possible.

By the way, I'm glad I planted your "Chocolate Beefsteak" (whatever it may be) because it was really, really good.

I'm looking forward to your pictures and reviews.
