Description

Before Batch 009 touches your lips you can sense its luscious texture. The nose is like crimson velvet, ripe with raspberry compote, laced with butterscotch and tinged with molasses. Beneath the decadent maple and cinnamon overtones lies a black cherry drizzle on lemon-zested buttercream. The secondary notes whisper of black forest cake, garnished with a mint leaf, served à la mode.

Batch 009 lands with a burst of berry fruit and a sweet baking spice counterpart. The landing dissolves into cinnamon and brown sugar while the fruit notes melt like muscadine grapes rolling thick viscous vanillin oils across the tongue. The dense raw maple notes seep into the side palate, dominating the entire midsection like treacle turned into languid molten lava moving implacably toward the finish. As the rich molasses note reaches the last section it transitions into a triad of wood spice, gentle mint tea and oak tannin, echoing endlessly, reverberating honey, citrus and nutmeg.
