Default Raspberry variety "Tulameen"

I have planted some raspberry canes with this variety name. It is
described as "a new introduction". The name seems to me to be Finnish.
Or does anybody know better?

It is a lovely raspberry, large fruit on long branches, but it does grow very
tall. I think mine would have topped 10' if I had not bent them over in a hoop.


I suppose it depends how you define new I have had mine for 4 years.


Is the flavour as good as they say? My comparator for
flavour in commercial varieties is Malling Leo, if you know that one, does
it compare?
