Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

Bronze/copper color, with orange core highlights. Very toasty, doughy, yeasty aroma at first that expands to include cocoa, brown sugar later on. Flavor profile is multilayered, caramelized onion-like, burnt, charcoal-like, toasty yet fruity. Superb blending of the highest order.
