Flavor Notes
**Kiwi (Yellow) (WF) 3.5% (4-15-22)** -- This one was going to be difficult as despite regularly gorging on green kiwis I have never had a Golden/Yellow Kiwi, so I cannot speak to it's authenticity. I've heard comparisons of the Yellow Kiwi to a cross between a Strawberry and a Guava, and that MIGHT put you in the ballpark with this one, but only barely. Kind of a non-descript almost tropical fruit, without much tartness, and with a musky undertone. This one was a hard one to review, as I LOVE green Kiwis, especially their bright tartness, and this one just didn't have any, and that is allegedly correct. Just below mid-level sweet and nothing off-putting, BUT, for the slightly musky undertone. I wouldn't call it off-putting, but it is/was there. It was very full tat this weight, and it didn't feel overpowered, and continued testing revealed an almost citrus oil-like finish. Not bitter, and didn't detract from the flavor, but again, it was there. It swirled around, staying fairly obscured, but at times I almost got a grapefruit/peach profile. Hard to nail down, and never having the real Yellow Kiwi, that's about as close as I can get for you. Not sure if this flavor was in my wheelhouse or not, but that's not the point of these reviews. I could see this being used in many fruit and tropical mixes, but not sure if it could take the lead or not. Felt pretty solid at **7.4/10**.
