It is interesting that you mentioned Belyi Naliv. We are growing it this year and loving it too!

This year (so far) we loved Indiana Heirloom, Vjerino, Sean's Yellow Dwarf, Summer Sunrise (dwarf), Arkashin, Yellow Brandywine, Waltingers Fleisch aus Indien, Sputnik, Cesu Agrais, Danko. Many more yet to ripen and sampled, so this may not be our complete list.

Cherries: Miel du Mexique, Rosii Marunte, Tel-Aviv Train.

Malakhitovaya Shkatulka is usually our favorite green, but for some reason none of the green-when-ripe varieties taste super exciting this year - it may not be GWR year for us, or maybe my taste buds are craving something different this year?

Hey Tania, do you have an opinion on the Platfoot Yellow Brandywine, as opposed to the "normal" Yellow Brandywine? Just wondering. Thanks.

I never grew them side by side. I think they are both excellent (although late in our garden).

Stan prefers Yellow Brandywine over KBX, and I would not argue with him too much

My favorite yellow has always been Dr. Whche. My first of this year is ripening on the windowsill. I also had a surprise cross this year. From my Stupice seeds I got a plant that looked like stupice (PL) and the tomatoes looked like Stupice except that all were lemon yellow! Nice mild taste and pretty early too. I have Jubilee growing and am looking forward to trying them (1st of them is on the windowsill beside the Dr. Wyche). All good so far. No serious Wow! Yet though!
