**Ultimate Pink Burst (Jungle Flavors) 3% (2-23-25)** -- Sweet, Tart, and WOW !!!!! OK, ok, maybe I jumped the gun here. While I'm not a huge Starburst-er, I have had a few, and yes, this one tasted VERY close to a Pink Starburst Candy. The Strawberry element(s) were fairly complex, and tasted like a couple of strawberries. Much like the candy it seemed centered around a combination of ripe, candied, and artificial strawberries. The sweet / tart ratio was about perfect, and literally gave you JUST enough of each, perfectly paired. The candy profile was no LESS impressive, as somehow, Flavor Jungle figured out how to really mimic the chewy candy aspect(s). Not a hard candy, not a gummy, but somehow, they nailed the chewy starbust-ish candy profile.

At 3% it was very full, and sweetness was just at mid-level, which worked for a chewy candy flavor. As is sometimes the case, it was SOO good, that I literally kept filling tanks up and enjoying it, before realizing I hadn't written a word LOL. As stated this is not a dedicated or pure" strawberry, but a chewy SB candy, that was spot on for a SB Starburst. No off-notes, issues, and abou tthe only "thought" was possibly the candy element(s) might have slightly muted the SB's, but again, just a thought, and it was soo slight, won't mark it down much at all for it, BUT, something I thought of. All in, if you love "Pink" Starbursts, you might want to pick up a BIG bottle of this one now. Easily just almost perfect, at a **9.9/10**."
