Flavour Analysis

At first, smoked pancetta shows powerful porky meatiness, and then animal fat, smoke and oleic acid come into focus. A hickory note brings pronounced warm woodiness, with a char note setting distinct aromatic bitterness alongside it, and black pepper and ash notes give the profile a rounded, lingering character.
