I've grown both. I love Kellogg's Breakfast but am not that fond of the taste of Persimmon.

But all the folks in the world cannot tell you what Persimmon will taste like to you, b'c your mileage may vary from others.

So you can grow it and see how you like it and you can also consider some other oranges that might appeal to you b'c they aren't on the sweet side, as you said, and in that regard I'd suggest Tangella and Jaune Flammee as options.

The orange variety most grown before KB appeared was Amana Orange, but I think KB is far superior in taste.
