Yuzu Flavor-FLV

When I first smelled it, it smelled like a cleaning product. But with just a little bit it opens up a lot for a unique orangey lemon flavor. Actually pretty close to real yuzu lemon juice.

**Yuzu (Flavorah) 1% (3-18-23)** -- Finishing out this NEW series from Flavorah with the Yuzu. Having never eaten one, I couldn't directly compare it. It presented as a quite unique mix of almost a lighter orange, with some lemon, and almost some grapefruit notes on the finish. Suffice it to say, this IS a citrus flavor LOL. What made it unique was it kind of swirled around with the 3 main elements trading places for the lead. This kept it fairly complex, and an interesting flavor to test. It didn't present as overly aggressive or acidic, and despite it's 3 main notes, was actually fairly smooth. It was tart without being sour, and and was JUST kissed by an almost citrus-y oil on the finish, which did nothing more than drive home it's authenticity. @ 1% it was nicely in the middle of the strength road, and could possibly benefit with a little push up to 1.5%. As it stood, it was quite good, refreshing, and very natural tasting, and kept you guessing almost till the end. In conclusion, this was a great unique citrus flavor that centered around a light orange, lemon and grapefruit, that was below mid-level sweet, and kept you wanting more. Because it did straddle 3 different citrus fruits, you could use it across a variety of recipes with success. All in, a fresh, clean finish to this series, and leaving it fairly high @ **9.0/10**.

Yuzu Flv 2% Quick thoughts- nice citrus mix, picking up a pink grapefruit, and lime off this- Steeped over a week. Bright clean, no off notes. No chemical notes. Definitely grapefruit forward.
