charcoal sets the tone & never entirely abandons it, but shares -> cherry -> red currant -> nutwoods -> burning rubber; liqui-smoke after-math
Quality 12.3 / 20
Crude & heavy-handed, even sloppy, work. Chocolate stripped of its properties then reconstituted as if it were industrially un-Dutched. A bean that deserves better.
