Blind Assessment
Charred wood with a backgrounded dark chocolate sweetness dominates in aroma. The dark chocolate character intensifies in the cup, complicated by a hint of orangy fruit. Lean but smooth mouthfeel; sweetly smoky in the finish.

Who Should Drink It
An ultra-dark roast that preserves some pleasing chocolate character amid the smoky embers. Low in acidity, both perceived and measured.
