What do reviewers say about Chene and Laudano Nero?
This one divides people for exactly the right reasons. The opening is green, astringent, almost aggressive. But beneath that sharpness sits oak and rum, warm, sophisticated, old-world.Chene
Smoke that went sweet. That's the gamble here, honey finding its way into the ash and slate, vanilla that remembers it grew up in a pod. Too much? Maybe.Laudano Nero
