Strength: Medium-Full
Tasting Notes: First light is a huge wave of dark chocolate chips, maple, sweet cream, and baking spices. Roasted coffee beans, black pepper, and Madagascar vanilla immediately follow. The finish adds a lingering dark chocolate. The retrohale adds a warm pepper burn.
As it progresses, notes of dark brown sugar, white oak, and whipped cream appear. The blend gets toastier with hints of walnut, clove, and cinnamon stick. The balance is impeccably perfect!
Halfway, the blend gets velvety in character! Amazing notes of milk chocolate, cappuccino, cake frosting, and aged leather emerge. Toffee, dried fruit, cardamom, and graham cracker immediately follow. It's hard to describe how deep the flavors are. It's completely incredible!
Last third is total fireworks! Caramel, whiskey barrel, and nutmeg join the mix. Creamy espresso, custard, toasted almond, and Tootsie Roll (don't know how else to describe it.) The flavors continue to layer and layer over each other. The complexity is off the charts!
