I really enjoyed this. It felt like it had notes of Mexican dark chocolate, with maybe just a bit of spice, chili or perhaps something milder, like black pepper. The sweetness was well tamped by the other flavors, and overall this was actually rather delightful.
Unusual in a good way. Very sweet with notes of chocolate and friit. Complex flavors make it easy to drink.
