Flavor 31 / 50
strong butterscotch toffee runs flat over muted chocolate-cream -> generic coconut -> grade C, harsh-burn / tooth-hurting sugar rush to the finish, robbing profile of rich loams & earth/wood residuals of Javanese cacáo
Quality 12.2 / 20
Lot of promise never fully develops due to under fermentation & over conching (in ill-cleaned machinery).
