The cross was between two tomatoes I really like. Captain lucky and ambrosia gold. They taste like them. Balanced. Both sweet and tangy at the same time. I personally find sun gold doesn't really taste "tomatoey"
These taste like a big tomato to me. Especially the black. Like Cherokee purple-sweet and tangy at the same time.
It's no use describing taste imo.
Black cherry can be good or bland, depends on seed source I think. These taste better than any black cherry I have grown. I credit the potato leaf for the flavour. The reason I wanted a potato leaf cherry was because I think overall potato leaf tomatoes have the best flavour development.
These are only at F2 so still lots of work to do and hoping the flavour keeps coming through as the cross stabilizes.
