88 / 100This sounds like a rich blend with more going on than easy sweetness alone. Smoke and dry malt give it a firm line, while chocolate, honey and citrus keep the character from feeling one-note. Wood polish and Chinese herbs make it less straightforward than a gentle everyday pour. I like that contrast, though the earthy and medicinal edges may not suit everyone.
inkwell.sparrow22 Septthe waxiness and oily notes give this blend a texture i’m drawn to, while smoke and malt keep the character grounded. the dry, smoky finish sounds like a fitting close.
meadowkoi3 SeptSmoke, citrus, and chocolate make this an intriguing blend.
