Strength: Medium - Full
Tasting Notes: First light hits like a near-death experience! Massive waves of milk chocolate, heavy cream, and aged leather instantly wash over the palate. Immediately following, rich flavors of salted caramel, whipped cream, and roasted coffee beans appear. The finish is long adding vanilla bean and dark brown sugar. Retrohale is adds a warming pepper burn.
As it progresses, red velvet cake and cinnamon come to the fore. Hints of candied macadamia nut and red oak. The finish continues to impress--very clean with hints of all-spice and cake frosting.
Halfway, toasted marshmallow, white pepper, and bourbon whiskey emerge. The finish brings waves of cashews, cardamom, and sweet black tea. The age of tobacco really starts to be tasted. It's a mature, refined flavor that only comes from extra aging. So delicious that it's hard to describe!
The last third everything gets even more intense! Creamy espresso, dark leather, and cinnamon stick become pronounced. Balanced perfectly by flavors of toffee, pie crush, and cashew. It’s absolutely unbelievable down to the nub!
