House Review
  • Nose:

    Sweet cream, caramel, big red gum, cracked pepper, maple sweetness.

  • Taste:

    Medium mouth feel, some heat. Sweet and cinnamon heavy. Vanilla butter cream, pepper, allspice. Theres more heat than Id like.

  • Finish:

    Medium length, more heat. Cinnamon, pepper, spices and caramel sweetness.

  • Overall:

    Overall, this is just fine. Its not great, its not terrible. Its incredibly overrated on the social media outlets of the world, though. Thankfully there are other great choices when this is not available for those who like it, but I wouldn't stress, either.
