Mac-Orange

Impact
As Tennessee Williams points out in Streetcar Named Desire, there’s hypocritical & then there’s honest critical.
Any guy to ever ride a camel understands what a nutcracker they can be.
This macadamia nut job is sheer confucktion.

Appearance 2 / 5
| Color: | jaundiced |
| Surface: | mottled & raddled |
| Temper: | can barely find the shine thru all the mars |
| Snap: | broken spirit |
Aroma 6.9 / 10
TBE (to be expected): orange rides roughshod w/ zest & then some -> abates into mellow orange-creamsicle before thawing into concentrated OJ
Mouthfeel 10.8 / 15
| Texture: | 2-toned: gummy candied-orange land on soft cocoa butter (like camel’s knee pads) |
| Melt: | discombobulated |
Flavor 40.4 / 50
warm orange-creamsicle -> vanilla-date cured in salt -> blank cocoa -> background honey hum -> amber -> it all sticks around as some orange pith
Quality 15.6 / 20
A formulation in line with Al nassma’s tastefully-done Date bar: comes off the camel milk a bit to better balance the forces between it & cacáo.
The forethought that went into the primary additives is limited however. There's mac-oil flavor more than mac-nut which serves merely to soften the Textural load while the orange goes blaring, minimally spared by the natural salt content of camel’s milk that produces savory fruit effects.
A crowd teaser.
ING: sugar, camel milk powder (19%), cacáo butter, cocoa mass (31%), macadamia (5%), orange zest (5%), honey, vanilla
