I was disappointed in Isis Candy and Isis Brandy...I prefer a high acid tomato like Nieves Azorean Red. Red Barn was also productive but lacked in taste. Also grew Old German for the first time HUGE tomatoes but kind of bland for a yellow tomato. Nyagous was the worst tasting this season for my garden. Pretty tomato but won't grow that one again! I guess it all depends on climate, soil/potting mix, weather and growing conditions. For RED tomato I like Nieves Azorean Red, BLACK: Amazon Chocolate PINK : German Johnson, potato leaf and Helen's German GREEN: Emerald Apple & Hugh's. Haven't found a YELLOW tomato that I like yet.
Hugh's should be a large, pale yellow tomato...
