Emanuel Sam 4.0

Aroma: fruity, orchard fruits, tropical, hints of mango and pineapple, toffee, light spices, fragrant and bright with a sticky sweetness. Taste: ripe fruits, tropical notes are prominent, toffee, vanilla, a hint of coconut on the finish, balanced with a medium-length finish that is lightly oily, giving it a gentle smoothness. A well-crafted expression that captures that tropical touch and is superior to some others I have tried.

Arlo Burden 3.8

Very subtle peaty smoke, with an almost chocolate-like taste at the start.
