Background
The story
“Pine and fuel over a sweet, doughy cookie base — loud and frosty.”
The nose is sharp and gassy: pine and fuel over a sweet, doughy cookie base, loud and frosty. The effect is potent and balanced-leaning-up — a euphoric, creative head with a relaxed body, versatile across the day.
It runs very strong, so a little goes a long way for newer smokers. For gassy cookies done at competition level, Animal Face is a benchmark.
