Grew this year 2010, and she was best in the garden hands down. She stayed disease free even while surrounded by other plants with various leaf diseases, was a huge producer, and the taste is exquisite.
I would not characterize the flavor as sweet, as someone above said. Granny Cantrell has a complex tomato flavor that combines sweet and tang.
For disease resistance (in my experience, anyway), for good production, and especially for outstanding taste, this tomato will always have a spot in my garden.

Large, red, beefsteak type heirloom from Kentucky with very good flavor. If you like sweet, this one's for you. Very meaty with few seeds. Vines tend to be a little 'wispy' with average production.
