Try them at all stages of ripeness (well aside from green)--they change and everyone has a different opinion of peak flavor. When left inside and allowed to get very very orange, I feel they become too sweet and lose that tang I so much enjoy. My favorite stage is probably when the fruit first becomes completely orange.
