Review of Cherry Flavor-BCF:

**Cherry (BCF) 5.5% (12-10-25)**  --  Initially (because of past cherry incidents), I was hesitant to try this at the higher 5.5% as some cherries can go nuclear when tested too high.  My fears however, were misplaced, and this one did NOT hit DEFCON 1 levels.  It presented as a fairly artificial cherry, with hints of natural.  It actually reminded me of a mashup between a Luden's Cherry Cough Drop (no medicinals), and a Rita's Water Ice Cherry.  At the 5.5% weight it was fairly strong, and at a 8/10 on the strength scale.  Sweetness was just below mid-level, and I didn't get any scary off notes from this one.

It leaned heavily towards an artificial maraschino, and there was some slight dryness on the finish.  Overall it was very smooth, and missing much of the tart or bite that some fresh cherries have.  If you need a natural cherry, this one may not work out for you, but for smoother, artificial needs, this one would work out.  All in, a very smooth, heavily artificial cherry.  Saturation levels were great at 5.5%, and the only knock would be the slight dryness on the finish.  Leaving it high at a **9/10**.
