“Disappointing for a Caroni, but for those who like to lick fresh tar, it might be okay. Update: I've now tried it again with a little distance. There's something about it, somehow it reminds me of my younger years when I was 14 and took two puffs of a menthol cigarette before I got caught. I just had a taste like that in the finish. It's a very cool piece in any case. The smell is really great, but you can't say the same about the taste.”

“Giving this one a couple of goes over a view weeks, there is no denying: this is just not very good. While I do enjoy the nose, the rest is simply mean and makes for an interesting experience but nothing more.”

“Do you know this too? Tank empty, it takes until a helpful Thai lady with freshly brushed teeth comes by and asks, do you want to suck on my hose? Exactly, not a nice experience.”
