Amari Mcintire 4.3

Smell: rich butter, nut brittle, and wood. Taste: wood, spice, and a touch of sweet. Bold character. End: continued wood, lengthy and potent. This one really hits the spot!

Jarrett Chong 3.5

Caramel, leather, and green apple notes are present, with a long-lasting finish and a significant amount of flavor. I found it necessary to dilute this one with water to fully appreciate it.

Taylor Rojas 4.0

Incredibly strong. It stings the nose and throat all the way down. Adding a little ice and water makes it very good. The finish has caramel notes.

Sarah Schilling 4.3

A rapid burst of heat is followed by a surprisingly smooth finish. It's both delightful and potentially hazardous!

Ben Avalos 5.0

Warm and hot. Cherry-flavored lip balm on both inhalation and exhalation.

Jennifer Jacobs 4.0

Dark fruit and a maple heat on the nose.
