I wish I could provide a better description, but I don't know how. I was hoping the melon boba would be better than it turned out to be, since I've found I really like a couple of other flavors that have a really good melon flavor, mostly it's the canteloupe taste I really like. Of all the melon flavors I've tried, and I've tried quite a few, including a lot of watermelon, the ones I like best are Craveloupe and the "melon" flavor from a site called "electroniccigarettesinc.com". It's just listed as "melon" but when I got it, the label on the bottle says, "melon mix". It was my most favorite when I first started this, but they were out of stock when I went back to get more. I see now that have it in stock again, but note that it is not listed under the "american made" flavor, so I have no idea where it originates. I do plan on ordering more of it though. It tastes like a nice sweet canteloupe with a bit of honeydew melon tossed in, and it doesn't have any strange aftertaste to it that I could detect. I'm sorry I can't give you any more info than that, but it's been a while since I tried the melon boba. The other two I listed as ones I didn't like I REALLY thought they were nasty.
