To me, Brazilian, FHIA-01, and FHIA-18 are all very similar, and I like them all, but I prefer Brazilian. That's just my taste preference. FHIA-01 and 18 are pretty much indistinguishable to me, but both taste like what you expect based on parentage. I'd describe them as tasting like a Cavendish mixed with a Brazilian.

I haven't tried SH-3640, so I can't comment on that one.
