Roundhouse is a very dear to me...when what is up is gone it's gone...
So grab what you can when you can!!!
Really glad I picked up a bottle of this...
I have traditionally hated roses. I worked in a flower shop in highschool, and did my fair share of wrapping up a dozen roses. It is just so cliche, and plus those em-effers hurt! (every rose has it's thorn) But then I worked in a restaurant and was introduced to the culinary application of roses. Now, if you haven't tried a chocolate cake with chocolate-rose icing, you are missing out. Turns out roses are delicious! I love them in tea and gin drinks and chocolate... and so this was really a no-brainer for me. I totally get the gradma's bathroom thing, but I really think it's all about association (as I'm sure has been said many times before).
Anyway, I really liked it FOOB with all the rosey-ness in full force, but after a few days, it's getting even better. Rose is definitely mellowing out, and more balanced.
I would make the humble request that Nicoticket continue experimenting with florals, even if only occasionally.
Also, I just dripped some on top of strawnilla, and Y U M!

You are 100% correct on the associations piece!! So glad you enjoyed it! I don't have the "grandma's bathroom" association - we have a local food joint McFoster's Natural Kind that uses florals in food alot - I get that association. You haven't eaten a salad until it's garnished with flowers.![]()
I have a question in regards to Roundhouse. When I ordered it I assumed that it was made the same day because the born on date on the bottle has the same date as my order date. NT's website though states Roundhouse was mixed in June and released in July. How do I know if I have a fresh batch or a part of the June batch?
Thank you Jason, that is what I'm looking forward to!
just ordered a 50mil bottle of this. gonna let it steep a real long time!
Looking forward to trying this today when the mail gets here. Should I try it FOOB or let it sit for awhile? Who am I kidding....I HAVE to try this as soon as I get it out of the package!![]()
