Flavor West is a US manufacturer of water-soluble flavour concentrates. Sour is a neutral acidity enhancer with no fruit notes of its own, designed to add sharpness and brightness to fruit, candy and beverage mixes. It is ideal for boosting citrus, cutting sweetness or giving a “sour candy” edge to lighter flavours. Flavor West concentrates are water-soluble and PG-based. Note: We buy in bulk and rebottle into smaller bottles (not original packaging). For more flavours from this brand, see our Flavor West brand page.
