Flavor 46 / 50
smoked caramel percussion -> pine -> lemongrass -> snares huge sweetspot (mango & tamarind dipped in orange-blossom honey) -> pine re-appears in guise of juniper berry brushed on pine wood, then pinenut, for toffee-flavored rimshots around pandanus / saffron / sandalwood -> all turns silvery ash hi-hat -> cymbolic end to where it originally began - milk chocolate gong
Quality 18.1 / 20
Milk ameliorates bitters & softens acids without getting in the way of cacáo's instrinsics. What it misses in Cluizel's subliminal masterwork, it makes up for with power, placing it among the tops of Java type Milks.
