Malachite box was good I now grow every year.
Green Zebra was sour and mushy. Cherokee Green had many deformed fruit the one time I tried it. Lime Green salad was very productive, but taste too bland. We do not have intense summer heat to bring out the best flavors for many varieties.
A friend of mine who grows a lot of tomatoes absolutely loves Green Tiger (as seen at BC), and also loves Aunt Ruby's German Green.

Although Green Giant is one of my favorite-tasting tomatoes, I should note that mine in 2015 tasted a *lot* better with more sun (and they were prone to concentric cracking when they became ripe).
