What do reviewers say about With the Candlestick and Fuckery?
This one leans architectural, not sweet. Cherry wine gives it initial body but cinnamon prevents any dessert-like drift. The frankincense and smoke carry the load after the first hour.With the Candlestick
A sweet tooth with a mean streak. The caramelized sugar opens friendly, almost candylike, but underneath there's tobacco, smoke, and something that answers back. That's the whole point.Fuckery
