“This Mhoba offers us a lot of fruits (Banana / Coconut / Mango / Pineapple / Dry fruits) a huge greediness (Pastry brioche / Butterscotch / Chocolate / Fatty nuts) on sweet spices (Cinnamon / Vanilla / Pepper).We feel, under all these aromas the small side of sugar cane with vegetal (Hay / Green) as well as a beautiful freshness (Citrus / Ginger).fortunately we still have in the background the empyreumatic side of Mhoba (Solvent / Tar / Rubber).it is overall really good!”
