First time for me this year, and it turned out disappointing--but thankfully I grew just one plant. Raspberry Mochi does not appear to be a very productive variety, although it grew large and leafy, but given the size of both plant and tomatoes, there should have been three times as many fruits. The flavor is mediocre and not at all remarkable for a homegrown tomato. Maybe it's not a variety suited to my zone or to the weather we had this summer. Here are some pics that better illustrate the type of tomato:

Sorry that it was disappointing for you. It is funny how the same tomato can be so different depending on where it is grown.

Laura_in_FL, the original strain was grown in poor, sandy soil, and supposedly yield a decent tomato. My soil couldn't be any more different, being rich clay, so I think that could possibly be the reason for such a discrepancy in flavor and production.
