The smell is fuel /pine with some skunky/vanilla undertones. Nothing chocolatey about her. Taste is very similar , but more vanilla on the exhale. The buzz on this one is excellent. Close to 50/50 on the indy/sat influence , but it's right in your face instant from the first exhale. Makes my forehead sweat & gives me that warm sensation of a killer buzz. This one has left more than one smoker sitting on the couch in an incoherrent daze. The crash is kinda hard after a couple of hours & munchies will definitely be necessary. One of my favorite smokes for movies or a relaxing evening.
