Vanilla Absolue

Which Should You Buy?
This isn't just another vanilla; it's a divisive blend where rose and tobacco fight for centre stage. Expect a unique, spicy vanilla experience that some will adore and others will find too challenging or simply not vanilla enough.
This one's a proper Tauer, polarising opinions on whether it lives up to its 'Vanilla Absolue' name. Expect a sophisticated, complex amber-vanilla that isn't for the gourmand lovers, but a rich, resinous, and subtly spicy experience that demands patience.
