**Watermelon Juice (TPA) 4.5% (11-1-25)** -- With this being the LAST flavor in this 16 flavor series, (Sweetener will be next), I was torn between two profiles on this one. The first was a kind of, pretty close WM Juice, and the second was more of a Candied WM sweetened by a Golden Syrup. While it wandered between both during my tests, the latter seemed to be more prevalent. I emphasize Candied WM over a WM Candy, as the Watermelon was in the front, not the candy profile. I felt the sweetener came across as a bit darker than a simple white sugar sweetener, which is why I defined it as more of a [Golden Syrup](https://www.thespruceeats.com/what-is-golden-syrup-5191046), which opened up some darker notes. At 4.5% it was pretty strong, and far more saturated than the previously tested WM Sour Candy, and I'd give this one a 9/10 on the strength scale.

No overt off-notes to be found in this one. The watermelon notes leaned heavily artificial with slight natural notes, and as stated above, had an interesting dark/er undertone. All in, not a bad flavor, BUT, not entirely sold on the juice" aspect. Candied watermelon, mostly artificial with hints of natural, with a somewhat darker sugared undertone, with it being more of a candied watermelon as opposed to a juice. Leaving it at a **8.5/10**.
