About this color

Brandy Punch sits at 35° on the color wheel with 59% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the orange-red segment of the spectrum.

In digital environments, Brandy Punch is rendered as rgb(203, 140, 52), where the red channel dominates at 203, creating a strongly red-skewed appearance. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.

For print, Brandy Punch translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 31M 74Y 20K. The low-to-moderate black value (20%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its yellow ink content (74%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
