Taxi was one of their first varieties of tomato. It is an early yellow with massive yields. Flavor is mild and light, not anything like a late summer yellow tomato, but it is a great variety for market growers.
The Johnny's catalog basically tells me what I am going to see at market next summer. One family orders so much seed that they sent a sales rep to our market to talk to them in person. He asked me for directions. I saw his sales rep gear and mentioned that my market table earlier in the morning had been full of Artisan cherry tomatoes. He burst into a huge smile and gave me a hat. As he walked away, it occurred to me that he probably thought I bought the seeds from Johnny's, which was not the case.
