What Our Editors Thought
“Warm, enveloping spices lead into a creamy, rich palate, with restrained cinnamon and gentle heat from ancho peppers. Finishes in an amalgam of dark chocolate and residual spice that lingers gently in the back of the throat.”
What Our Panel Thought
“On the nose, milk chocolate mixed with ancho chiles. In the mouth, creamy milk chocolate coats the tongue. Vanilla bolsters the chocolate, but the chiles and cinnamon are subdued.”
What the Brewers Say
“Rich chocolate aroma and flavor, with balancing cinnamon and spice notes.”
