The answer will depend upon a variety of factors, mostly subjective. There are many nuances of flavor which are difficult to describe - and which vary even among similar varieties grown in different locations.

I’d suggest starting by going to a small market (probably ethnic) and buying a couple types to taste: Manzano, burro, etc. Then eat them at different stages of ripeness. Then try a blind taste test and see if you can guess which is which. And which you like better - and why.

Happy discovery!
