Default Early Potatoes

Now everyone is eating their early potatoes how are they?
What do you think of the varieties you grew for growth and taste?

We grew Inova and Printaline this year and must say we are rather impressed,
probably the best early pototoes we have ever grown for yield, tuber
quality/shape and flavour and that says a lot as we try different varieties
every year. When the potatoes were still small we were getting over 3lb from
each plant and the last Inova we dug up we got over 5lbs although they are
beginning to get large, still taste nice though. The Printalines seem to
have stayed smaller, more like new potato size.

So please let us know how your varieties have done?
