I haven’t grown this one yet—but it’s at the top of my list this year. Everything I’ve read (and everyone I trust) says Honey Drop is one of the best-tasting cherry tomatoes out there. It’s often compared to Sungold—but get this: in side-by-side taste tests, most people actually preferred Honey Drop. Same honeyed sweetness, but smoother, deeper flavor—and better crack resistance.
This variety was bred by Crabapple Farm in Massachusetts and came highly recommended by Jay at Four Winds Farm. It’s open-pollinated, productive, and selected for flavor, color, and durability. Sounds like a winner.

Bobby’s Notes:
This is our first year growing Honey Drop, but based on trusted growers and everything we’ve read, I’m excited to give it a try. If it lives up to the hype—and I think it will—you’ll see it on our “returning favorites” list next season.
