AJ Fernandez Enclave Connecticut Figurado: the cold draw reveals scents of milk chocolate. The opening is all about spices, with rich cinnamon and white pepper notes, together with some chili nuances.
The first third delivers notes of wood, white pepper, and cinnamon. The strength is a little above the medium level (3.5/5).
The middle third adds aromas of walnut and roasted notes, together with a light vegetal vein, with some balsamic nuances. The white pepper is still well present in the aftertaste and is joined by piquant notes. The strength increases a little bit, enough to reach the medium to full level (4/5).
The final third promotes the vegetal notes and the white pepper. The piquant peaks are still present, but only in the background. The strength doesn’t change and the finale is well balanced and satisfying.
Overall, the AJ Fernandez Enclave Connecticut Figurado delivers a balanced smoked, boasting a broad flavor profile. The flavor profile is rich and structured and intense, and fulfilling.
