I should say that Flavor King and Flavor Grenade are things I could probably grow, if I did enough rot sprays. But one of my goals is when the choice is A vs B and I like them roughly the same in terms of taste but B is significantly easier, I will pick it. I learned this in my experience with vinafera grapes. I used to have to spray copper all summer long, I was doing as many grape sprays as everything else combined (this was organic grape growing in humid eastern conditions). At some point I decided it was not worth it and dug them all up.
Apricots have worked great for a dozen years in a row, until this year when they got frozen out for the most part - 95% losses. I highly recommend putting in one or two and see how they do. Tomcot is the most reliable, Orangered is somewhat prone to rot but not too bad, Robada is highly prone to cracking and rotting so I removed it. Spring Satin is more like a plum; its a poor man’s Flavor Supreme - similar taste when perfectly ripened but not reliable in getting there. See Scotts stone fruits variety experiences 2005-2015 for my complete descriptions if you didn’t already find it.
