In my zone, I find 1258 or Gypsy tasting better. For that matter I have a few more varieties that is better tasting than GN. 
Even my Grantham's Royal breba taste better than a GN breba. I have No doubts GN maybe a great tasting fig in the right zone.
Hopefully we can hear reports of this from hotter zones than mine.
