Covington sweet potato variety?

2 years ago I grew beauregard sweet potatoes and loved them. They were very sweet, and moist. I know a lot of people say there are better varieties, so last year I tried vardeman and bunch porto rican. I did not like the yellow bunch porto rican very much, it was too dry and not sweet enough. I also didn't find the vardeman as sweet as the beauregards. I was wondering if anyone would recommend the covington variety? Or, should I try the beauregards again? I can purchase the beauregard slips at my local Agway, but would have to mail order the covingtons. Any recommendations for a good place to mail order from? I know a lot of people use Sand Hill, but they dont carry covington. I live near the coast in Eastern, MA near Boston.
Thanks!
Michele
