Smoky spicy flavors here, with some really good dark fruit sweetness. It really hits on all levels. The few I’ve smoked have had killer construction too. Glad I got to try them before they disappear.

Fantastic smoke as usual from Oveja Negra. As soon as I tried one I ordered another fiver as it will be a while before it comes back around. Fantastic draw and excellent smoke with good flavor transitions with wood, earth and spicy notes. Fairly strong, I prefer to smoke this one with some water as I feel a strong drink mutes it a bit.
