After a better experience with Woop Woop, I picked up one of these for $9.99.
Upon openning, it was "THE RETURN OF THE BIG DARK FRUIT II". It was HUGH fruit. This however, seemed to move quickly away and the predominant nose became, "HOW MUCH WOOD CAN A WOOD CHUCK CHUCK IF A WOOD CHUCK COULD CHUCK WOOD". Apparently the wood chuck can chuck quite a bit of wood. Left it for about an hour and all liquid had now evaporated and it became solid wood so I carved a wood bowl out of it.
H0ly Cr@p. That is a lot of wood and that's the entire story....except for the momentary burst of acidity at the end to help clean it out. Not going back.....
However...most likely wrong time to open a bottle in 95+ degree heat so what I note above could be unfair. Should've looked for a chilled Rose or something...
