I found this gazpacho to be a bit bland. It needed more salt and pepper, and maybe some additional herbs or spices.

This gazpacho was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. I would still recommend it to others to try.

I was a bit hesitant to try this gazpacho because I'm not a big fan of berries in savory dishes, but I was pleasantly surprised! The flavors were really well-balanced and the soup was very refreshing.
