Working-class bar making its way up in a shizzy rags-to-riches amalgam.
Appearance   5 / 5
Color: blackest brown x purple hue
Surface: impeccable
Temper: polished
Snap: clean & clear sonic bang
Aroma   8 / 10
subdued: apricot flowers/white grape perfume + honey/cream in a burl / wood backbone; smokes on the snapped edges
Mouthfeel   12.3 / 15
Texture: rubber clump melts vinyl smooth; slightly parched; 5:4 fat-mass ratio imparts size & roundness
Melt: wants some coaxin’ sympathy to let flow
Flavor   43.2 / 50
soft Ghana chocolate opening -> quick black & blue berries jam (Ecuador) -> bitter hit recedes into choc backdrop –> full-on yellow-orange twang (pineapple/papaya) /juiced white wine (tall & wide wash wall via Panama) –> long distance fade on blackstrap coffee grains
Quality   17.4 / 20
The architectonics of this visible blend are stratified rather than seamless. Think construction site, a low bitter/mild acid fixer-upper, that shows the blueprints, joints, fissures as so many additions to the foundation.
