Tasting Notes

Nose: More of a nutty chocolate with just a hint of orange zest

First taste: Got that smooth velvety cake vibe I am liking this. Tap to unwrap this chocolately orange morning, I tell ya. 

Second taste: Big bright juicy orange notes coming through, who will buy this wonderful feeling I’m so high I swear I could fly. 

Chocolate still getting dark on the way out maybe with like an 80-85% cocoa content god damn any milk today, mistress? 

Ngl I’m a Dairy Milk man so need to dial that back a smidge more but this is a good direction.
