Manitou
Agrico launched Desiree about 50 years ago. They are serious about replacing it in the near future with rising star, Manitou. Apart from perhaps the name it ticks all the boxes. Large, productive, uniform, smooth, long oval tubers with pale yellow flesh and a good red skin colour. It eats well, is general purpose and is disease resistant - blight (particularly tuber blight), scab, virus, yellow eelworm and blackleg. Will grow well in a wide variety of conditions.
