For me, Sungold, Cherokee Purple, and Brandywine are the "gold standards" of taste. I rate these three as the "magical" 9.5 on the scale. Rating them at 9.5 leaves the possibility that one day I might see something just a bit better. However, you have to catch all of them at just the right moment for the taste to be at its peak. Any tomato has the capability of producing one or more fruit that hits the pinnacle for that variety. What I keep looking for it the variety that doesn't produce even one tomato that rates less than 6.0.
