I think there’s a good bit of variation in flavor by region and species. The small smooth chanterelles have more of the general earthy mushroom flavor, the flavolateritius ones that have more of a curtains shape are very nutty and meaty with very little earthy taste, and the Appalachian chanterelles are even a little bit spicy. Those are the ones I find in my area, anyway.

The ones I find in my area are nowhere to be found. 😭 Maybe someone got greedy, maybe they didn’t come, I don’t know.
Cinnabar chanterelles, despite being plentiful by me, dont really taste like much.
