shadowy chocolate -> cool pink peppercorn, its color commissions the balance of flavor -> mace peeks thru before swallowed back in -> ends on a gaseous blue cheese; after-math lingers ginger + dusky oaken cocoa
Quality 12.3 / 20
Almost no evolution to this flavor progression. Despite hot spices (ginger, cinnamon, mace, pepper), a weirdly cold chocolate; dull & dim as a cask barrel in a dank cellar. Domori's famous 'low impact' processing seemingly putting the chill on all the additives. Under-optimized, & possibly stale assemblage of ingredients.
