Thanks, Hanna for posting your taste tests. I’m already thinking about next year’s tomato selections. I have a small garden, so it’s nice to avoid “duds” by reading your posts. I’m particularly looking for the best paste tomato, since we love homemade sauce.

Those tomatoes look tasty. Thanks for the information, I think next year I might add that to my list when I start my seed selections for Romas for the garden!

I grew Blue Beech paste tomatoes this year and they look just like you described for this one! They remind me of the size and shape of banana peppers but bright red. My plant also has been rather droopy, but not unhealthy looking and it has produced a LOT of tomatoes. I was very impressed with the Blue Beech both for its tomatoes and for it’s production.

I grew this tomato last year. I’m one of those read the book by the cover people, I thought it looked good. Taste wise it was the worst tomato I have ever grown. I wish I had thought to making sauce with it now that you mentioned it.
