What Black Cherry Kiwi Tastes Like
The first draw opens on dark stone-fruit black cherry — closer to a ripe black cherry compote than a candy cherry. Mid-palate the green kiwi arrives bringing a tart, almost-citric counter-note. The kiwi prevents the cherry from feeling too heavy; the cherry prevents the kiwi from feeling too sharp. The exhale carries a soft menthol cool (4/10) that lifts both fruit notes.
Reference points buyers cite: "black-cherry soda with kiwi twist," "cherry compote next to fresh-cut kiwi." The dark-fruit-meets-bright-fruit contrast is the design point.
Black Cherry Kiwi Sweet / Sour / Cool Rating
Sweet 7/10, Sour 4/10, Cool 4/10. The sour-leaning ratio (sweet:sour = 7:4) is unusual in the TN9000 line — most TN9000 SKUs sit at sweet 8 / sour 1-2. This is the most sour-balanced cherry SKU in RAZ's full line.

TN9000 only. The flavor is a 9K-exclusive recipe — not available on the 25K (DC25000 / LTX), VUE 50K pods, or the RYL Classic 35K Purse editions. If you want a similar dark-cherry profile on a larger device, the closest 25K substitute is Cherry Strapple (cherry + apple).
Black Cherry Kiwi vs Ruby — Both Dream-Adjacent Cherry SKUs

See Ruby for the comparison.
