Impact
Dry feel translates into acrid dust flavor. If starving in a town coming like tumbleweed, & in need of a shot to chase it down, well... should it taste like this, things could be worse. Remember the proverb: Life is not holding a good hand; life is playing a poor hand well.

burly wood bitter -> plum / rhubarb -> gets spirited into berry gin (huck ‘n cran) -> rising raspberry sunburst -> inessential chocolate

Well-modulating acids but ultimately angular, hard, & unrich.
