I think that there are always going to be seasonal variations (weather) - and people's taste buds definitely vary widely. Sweet Sue was quite sweet for me this year, and Blazing Beauty and Perth Pride and Mr Snow quite tart - which is consistent with my experiences. The yellow Sneezies also change a bit as they ripen from a pale to a deeper yellow.
I think we are all still learning a lot about all of these varieties - they are in the grand scheme of things not only very new, but perhaps still going through some minor segregation (most are at the F8 to F10, even F12 in some cases, generations, but some of the crosses were quite "wide"- big differences between the parents).
