Yes, Big Sun is tasty, but I found it persnickety and hard to grow. Pretty warm too.
Salt, habs have their own taste. I don't know how to describe it - something akin to floral; we just call it "hab flavor". Some people don't like it. Some do. Sometimes it carries over into crosses.
Frankly, I wouldn't expect the no-heat habs to have a flavor all that much like the "real thing". But then I've never grown them.
Try buying some at the store, then strip out the placenta and sample the pointy end to see what you think. It may be that you don't like "hab flavor". Or it may be something else.
