Negro

Impact
Developmental psychology compressed in a bar. Goes from kids cotton-candy to adult coffee-can (a whisper to fortissimo) in the same number of beats it takes an 11 year-old to surf the 'net then slip on a condom.
Appearance 2.8 / 5
| Color: | light dirt brown w/ gunsmoke grey overlay |
| Surface: | rough fit & finish to the mold |
| Temper: | semi-flat |
| Snap: | muddled; sanded edge |
Aroma 3.6 / 10
blows the wrapper off: vanilla monster / sugar cube from across the room... Folger's French-roast instant coffee (re: scorched) & peanuts in an unwaxed leather saddle bag
Mouthfeel 11.8 / 15
| Texture: | firm; full-bodied (despite a CBS ~ 1:2:2) |
| Melt: | agglomerated |
Flavor 17.4 / 50
sugared cotton-candy -> classic vanilla-boosted childhood cocoa, underscored by pea-sized peanut -> vanilla monster & nut job infuse to confuse the bean behind a full-frontal mask -> harshly-brewed coffee surges over -> faint cinnamon, salt 'n pepper -> backs out dissolved sugar & coffee grains
Quality 6.2 / 20
Way too much make-up on. Campfire of burnt beans (could be chocolate-flavored pintos) masked by an entire crop of vanilla monsters. Bottom shelf; aisle 6; Walmart (which gives this bar too much credit & Blanxart too much status)
