NOTES:
Below I will include, verbatim, what I wrote about this blend when I first wrote about this blend a couple of months ago. Now, I am again writing about this blend using another identical offering of this blend.
Here, let's explore this current offering. To do-so, let's explode the first write-up. It's pretty simple. Outside of the parenthetical is the original review. Parenthetically, is my now response to that.
Walnut mocha torte | Paprika | Pumpernickel
(Yup.)
Depth. (Still deep waters, but less still perhaps. A bit more surface ripples.) Complex layers. (Perhaps more-so now.) Dense and weighty. (Yes, and to the same measurements but more vibrancy.) Plush. (Lesser, with dare I say something approaching occasional edginess.)
Well-balanced. (Then, think of a juggler; think of a juggler juggling three bowling pins. Now, think of a juggler juggling three bowling pins, a butcher knife, and a stuffed teddy bear. Good show. More demanding of a performance and a more edge-of-the-seat audience.)
A dark unfurling of motion and stillness. (A tick brighter now via new components. The motion is as the motion was, the stillness is now that of the animated series Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist.) Dappled sunlight exhibits traces of mulling spice, cola, black dahlia. (Yup.)
