Coconut DUOMEI
PG 100%
Flavor Notes
**Coconut (Duomei) 0.4% (1-7-23)** -- I took a little extra time with this one, and did not increase the testing weight from my original 0.4%, as it felt perfectly situated, right there. This one was hard to nail down as exactly WHICH type of Coconut it was, and it was an interesting search, even if I couldn't fully nail it down. I think what made it so hard to nail down, was it was almost a medley of different coconuts, including a coconut flake, coconut milk, and a cream of coconut. There you go, that's it people !!!! The negatives that I've gotten from other coco's that I was on the lookout for were the typical dry/astringent, oily/greasy notes that some of the NOT so good coco's have, and this one had NONE of them, AND, no suntan lotion here either. It was about mid level sweet, and fully present at the testing weight, and I didn't find the need to increase, or decrease the strength. Not oily, or greasy, and it had just a little twang" on the finish, and that added to the experience, and authenticity of it. Despite being mid level sweet, it was NOT a candied coconut, which was great, as that would open up it's uses. I'd give it a 50/50 natural/artificial split, and that seemed to really work. It was JUST rich, creamy, and sweet enough, but without having too much of any. I looked hard across two testers trying to find faults/gaps and could not. Your coconut needs/tastes could be different than mine, but this one really bridged the gap and combined three different types of coconuts, in one package. I could see this being a workhorse in coconut creams, custards, etc. The only possible take off COULD be the slight "twang" at the finish, but IMO, it added to the complexity, and authenticity. Felt great @ a **9.3/10**."
