I wonder if you just didn't say anything, how many people would notice. They definitely taste different, but not so different everyone would immediately realize if told one way or the other.

Probably the end result and differences depend a lot on the local factory that made it. I remember not liking the taste of some other product that much and then after going on a travel, I noticed a huge difference to a product labeled the same.

Each and every product is fine-tuned to local markets. Coke will taste about the same throughout Europe but will have a starkly different flavour in the US (due to differences in sweetening, but also the base syrup flavour profile is quite different). Pepsi in my experience tends to be the most similar between different regions.
