The reasoning behind this redux is a switch from Short Robusto to Short Robusto of a conceivably different batch. The original (10/31/19) review can be read at: https://bit.ly/2XvMs4r This 2d will not reference that 1t. You should read it anyway. It is superbly written.

NOTES:
Chocolate | Black Pepper | Wood

Bigly of the chocolates, yes? Yes. Dark & milk both. A bit of Mexican chocolate, too. Chocolatey af, see? The remaining of primaries act as a WonderBra, lifting & separating the Death by Chocolate which is this lush offering. Lifting is a black peppercorn with supporting spices all its own. Separating are planks of further-spiced cedar. Plush rhymes w/ lush & is apt. 

Middlings are those bolstering spices. Lettuce see... cinnamon, clove, paprika, cayenne... shared by the wood & pepper up-top. Creme brulee is here in the undertones, as well -- a bit burnt. Coffee, too. Robust yet neatly refined. A well-worked professional wrestling bout, say? Nuanced deeply & keenly complex. Aroma is a patisserie & bakery sharing a storefront. A next-door cafe. Dark grains & rich compost under-belly.

Finishes spicy-sweet on a set of gams that just won't quit. Burns even on-down, grows nice ash. No soft spots. Pulls smooth gate-to-wire. Noir. A bare bulb dangling over a card table. A cheap apartment over those shops? I like it here. Spiced rum. Cinnamon raisin bread in a toaster. This is fun. Serious fucking fun. Roasted orange in the final act.

FINAL GRADE: A
