Force Noir for cigar bar fellas to mix between numbed lips & draws on the latest Cuban blunt
Appearance   5 / 5
Color: brown-to-black
Surface: fab plaque
Temper: glistens
Snap: literal
Aroma   7.4 / 10
dark blanket of vanilla musk, moss, soil, chestnut wood... digging in the dirt; roasted coffee grounds... throws down an herb or two - French ‘garrigue’ straight from Provence
Mouthfeel   12.3 / 15
Texture: gum stick ultimately proves smooth
Melt: ponderous
Flavor   39.2 / 50
instant coffee hit -> bitter butter -> red apparition (cherry) -> faint raspberry gently rasps against embittered buds like sandpaper on the tongue -> fierce tannic cocoa, hence long lifeline
Quality   15.4 / 20
Imbalanced, even out-of-whack. Bitter flat / fat divide crossed by an acid nip for shadowy red fruit relief. As with its 72%, Cluizel once more sacrifices flavor for texture at the expense of overall good taste & even slightly misses the mark there; CBS ~ 3:4:2. Proportions notwithstanding, this is a problematic blend coupled with questionable roasting technique.
