Tasting Notes
"Tastes exactly like buckwheat pancakes with a flood of maple syrup poured over them, topped with stale cinnamon. Smoked sausage comes through too, ending in a bitter, medicinal finish that unfortunately lingers a bit too long. Subtle, this is not. The website copy suggests serving it in Cola."
