Paired with Belgian stouts, the Paradiso Quintessence Robusto was something to fall in love with. Notes of dark roast coffee, cereal, and molasses were the predominant ones. But there were other notes, too. Flavors came from everywhere. I could taste the night and the sea, the stars and the moon, and the wind that blew the past away.

My taste buds were trying to remember something…

My taste buds were trying to interpret the universe.
