There are different types of pomegranate: sweet and sour. The redder the shell, the more acidic the core. Sour pomegranates have a slightly thinner skin: when you pick them up, you can tell that the kernels are right underneath. You can tell that the ones with the thick skin, i.e. the sweet pomegranate, are a bit firmer. This could be more of a sweet pomegranate and this one is more of a sour pomegranate.
It is not 100 percent that if a pomegranate has a light skin it is sweet, and if a pomegranate has a red skin it is 100 percent sour.
