Review of Golden Kiwi Flavor  -FLV:

**Golden Kiwi (Flavorah) 1.5% / 2.25% (3-2-23)**  --  When starting to test this one @ 1.5% although good, it felt a little flat, and lacking "pizzaz", so I increased it to 2.25% where it started to shine a bit more.  More punch, pizzaz, and sparkle.  Having never eaten a "golden" but tested 1, maybe 2 others I was somewhat familiar with the GK fruit.  Missing were much/many of the typical Kiwi "green" notes, but a solid center of the Kiwi body was here.  It was far mellower than most of my goto "green" Kiwis, and overall this was a somewhat relaxed flavor, even at the higher 2.25% rate.  Good, fresh, with some slight sparkly, bright notes on the finish.  At both testing weights there were no off-notes, florals, etc., and was was below mid level sweet.  On my testing setup, the flavor had SOME juicy-ness, but ALSO, some dry-ness if that makes any sense.  Overall, I think the best way to describe it would be a somewhat mellow, Kiwi, that centered around the mid notes, with a smidge of sparkle, and brightness on the finish.  It presented as very natural, and fresh, and about the only takeoff would be for a somewhat "mellow"-ness, WHICH could have been by design and/or in keeping with it's "Golden" nature.  Not the strongest flavor, and above 2.0% is where it started to open up.  It felt solidly placed at **8.0/10**.
