Compromise solution between full-headed warrior-king Cacáo & mono-McCocoa.
Appearance   3.4 / 5
Color: UPS brown
Surface: uneven mold; pocked
Temper: car wax
Snap: low appeal
Aroma   8.1 / 10
cocoa/vanilla & coastal acacia wood punctuated by apricot/clove (toward soap proportions - especially redolent once airborne), then papaya; licorice + cooked prune on break
Mouthfeel   12.6 / 15
Texture: unctuous, full flesh & slightly greasy
Melt: even flow
Flavor   44.1 / 50
ripping alkalized cocoa -> date & banana leaf –> fruit mash -> gains definition after a tangerine-scented smoke column -> cherry/peach blossom -> debittered café on the fade
Quality   17.4 / 20
Durable warrior tamed by alkali. Very utilitarian; reliable with a winsome middle register (especially the beauty of cherry/peach blossom). Showcases Cocoa Research Institute of Ghana-Tafo which engineers some designer root-stock.
