Location, Location, Location!

These "Best Tomato" threads are fun to read give us ideas as to what varieties we might want to try, I'm guilty myself as I too started one of these threads.
BUT as with so many things I have to think that the key to a tomato growing & tasting good is location.
A tomato that someone grows well in California may not care for the humid summers we have here in VA and vise versa.
The type of soil that a tomato grows in has a lot to do with taste.
Morning sun vs evening sun has an effect on plants.
As a former apple grower I saw the same thing with fruit.
And as far as taste goes, it's just like beauty, it's all in the eye (or in this case the mouth) of the beholder!
Happy New Year everyone and may you all have a great tomato growing season!
