Sensory Blend Profile
Black pepper and spice dominate, then recede for dark chocolate, cloves, salted peanuts and espresso.
Dried tea leaves join the dark chocolate, with fresh coffee, creamy cedar and peanuts as the vanilla sweetness grows.
Charred meat and cedar take over, with espresso beans and cocoa nibs behind and black pepper still on the retrohale.
