I have tasted ripe Goumi fruit in July at Whitman Farms Lucile Whitman's Nursery in Salem Oregon.  There were sweet tart somewhat reminiscent of very ripe pie cherries. I liked the flavor  and having it in a nitrogen producing plant is great.  Mine haven't fruited yet I only got around to planting a pollinator last summer. Very fragrant tubular flowers in early spring.
