NOTES:
Boozy fudge | Jerk seasoning | Leather
Deeply-dense yet jovial. Powerful but refined. Big-big notes of bourbon-laced dark fudge include a structuring charred barrel. Jerk seasoning tidings fit well the pirate-y motif, me hearties. See? I can be fun. Lots of brown sugar in that mix -- cloves, cinnamon, ginger, salt. It's the Scotch Bonnet chile peppers that seal the jerk deal.
Leather delivery. Savory. Drips its juices down thru its midsection. All Spice, dark grains, a driving compost. Further down, vanilla bean, molasses, and separate dark chocolate. Rich and well-rounded then even more-so via a toasted cream intro at 2/3. Balanced, nuanced, complex. Extraordinarily, deeply, sneakily (respectively).
Burn opens in a split-ash manner but corrects fast. Draws smooth w/ a resistance typical of the vitola. Even & smooth. Heavy veins on the top-leaf hurt the eye, but not the hand. Oily, dark. Burns on an even-line, slowly. Ash grows to an inch. Excellent savory-sweet smoke out-put w/ spicy kicker in the air. The Emporer sits ashore in luxurious chambers. The sea brings him fortunes. Apt.
