I have 2 samples of Coyote and 4 samples of Champagne all growing in several rows next to each other. One of each are from Gleckler. The others from trades here.
I haven't fround where all the varieties change just yet (a weed thing) but of those tasted the Gleckler's 2 did taste the same. But the other Coyote sample definately tasted different and the best to me.
Some of the samples seemed to be a bit more prone to cracking than others, but I'm not sure which right now. The cracking could also just be the year as I've had some cracking problems with some other cherries that didn't seem crack prone last year.
Over all, it will make a great cherry for plant sales, but the small size (slightly bigger than currant varieties) and cracking make both a poor variety for selling the fruit, too much labor.
