Crossword Genius

Raw yet presumptuous (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fresh

This clue is a double definition.

'raw' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'presumptuous' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'yet' is the link.

(Other definitions for fresh that I've seen before include "New; strongish (breeze)" , "Newly picked" , "New or cheeky" , "(Of water) not salty" , "Original" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
