Light salmon orange color. Aromas and flavors of fruit punch kool-aid powder, hibiscus, and red berry tropical medley with a velvety, lively, fruity medium body and an appealing, medium-length finish manifesting notes of red gummi bears, strawberry watermelon candies, and rose water. Hibiscus and loads of red berries; a whole lot going on without being overly sweet or losing the plot.
