Jazz and Orange Jazz are pretty quick, for beefsteaks.

Taste tomato. Ready for our Collaborating members this winter. Will be generally released next winter. Not a paste tomato. More info here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aJ0cbQZ8YY

The "Taste" tomato was finished in 2009 (as you can see in the video above), but we never released it. We kind of got distracted getting the Artisan Cherry tomatoes out.
But it is a great little tomato. It looks like a paste tomato on the outside, but it is a fresh-eating tomato. For a couple of years, Taste Catering (our co-creators) had a weekly food stand at the San Francisco Ferry Plaza farmers' market, and everything they sold contained Taste tomatoes, as an ingredient. |

Thanks for the video; the tomato is beautiful; haven't had a fresh tomato in 4 months.

Barb, you will have fresh tomatoes soon, right?
Our tomato season is just about ending. I enjoyed a big Cherokee Purple tomato salad for lunch, but it may be the last one I have in awhile. |

Wow Fred cant wait to get them in the ground. It really pays to be a collaborating member. Good work.

The hot temps have given your tomatoes a chance to play catch up. The tomatoes I took in that picture 4 days ago have grown a lot since then. I'm seeing the pre-buds on OJ and OC too. If I knew it was going to stay this hot for this long, I would have started the Fire ones. |

I just found an old article about Taste Catering using Taste tomatoes at their stand.

Love the pictures; keep them coming.
Here's my Jazz plant at 49 days old; 4 days after the other picture was taken. It's grown even more in the last couple of days. Next pic should have a tomato. |

I think it is really good. Sweet, but also with nice depth of flavor. I think much of it's flavor comes from Cherokee Purple (an ancestor) along with the green shoulders, that fade with time.
