full flavor
Undiminished gustatory impact
Full flavor describes the complete, robust taste of something—typically tobacco or food—without reduction or dilution.
The phrase became prominent through cigarette marketing, where full flavor distinguished regular-strength products from light or mild varieties.
It implies richness and intensity: a full-flavor roast, full-flavor cheese.
The compound sometimes appears as full-flavored.
