my above purchases were mostly duds :
the PW had some pear aroma and flavor , but not very much.
it also has a lot of raw alcohol burn.
not what I was expecting. reminded me of
Local Raw Calvados in Brittany / Normandy : good for ' burning a hole '
and not much else
the CdMenthe was ' industrial ' no artisan anything .
the TiaMaria was OI. good coffee flavor and aftertaste
but sweeter than I remember.
the BHU was , as usual , very fine IceCold.
