Pods are thin and more or less brownish to black quality, glossy light brown vanilla pods. Relatively flat pods that are a little less fleshy but with a wider aromatic palette. Notes are strongly chocolaty, warm and powerful yet subtle, persistent, and spicy in the background, also it develop base notes of red fruits and currants.
