Impression:
My first whiff was grainy, sweet, and fruity, but I wouldn't have thought watermelon -- it smelled more like berries. I was sort of surprised that I tasted more watermelon than anything else. It tasted like straight watermelon juice with a hint of wheat in the background. My husband had a couple sips and said he couldn't taste the watermelon at all, but it was extremely prominent for me. It wasn't an overpowering taste, just unmistakably watermelon. I actually thought it was fairly tasty, and as it warmed to room temperature, the fruit and wheat flavors seemed to even out a bit more. I'm glad I gave this one a shot, and I'd probably have it again sometime, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.
Cheers!
