86 / 100
The nose pairs watermelon saltwater taffy with caramel, malt and vanilla, while lemon and spice cut through the watermelon candy on the palate. That sweet-and-bright contrast is more interesting to me than sweetness alone, and the malt gives the description a useful point of reference. The finish is described as long, tasty and textured, with a light yet assertive character. I’d be curious to see how those elements balance, though the notes leave that balance open.
