    Real talk

    Catharsis isn't trying to win you over, and that's the whole point. The spicy opening and metallic saffron might scare some people off. Good. Those aren't your people anyway.Catharsis
    Sweetness that doesn't apologize for itself. That ginger heat cuts through the sugar before it can get syrupy, giving the whole thing an edge that earns its cocoa.Mystic Sugar
