Happy 50th Anniversary to Nat Cicco, albeit six years late. The HHB Gold line commemorates the milestone and adds rarely seen touches like a pigtail cap and closed foot. That closed foot resulted in a tobacco taste on the cold draw. Dry cocoa threw out the first pitch. Oak and spice picked up soon after, paving the way for raisins and apricots. The fruits mingled with nuts near the midpoint. Caramel thundered in to begin the final third, expanding to Heath Bar by the finish. Two vicious canoes and a relight could not keep the HHB Gold from victory.
