I have not tried five pawns Black Flag Fallen but I do have Phillip Rocke. I find this to be a perfectly balanced creamy hazelnut Arabica coffee blend. This is not an ADV for me and not because I do not like it but because I find it has a very rich taste. There is no unpleasant scent IMO. BTW I did let my steep for a little over a month because initially I found the hazelnut to be a little over powering for my taste.

LOL.....it's not even close. Grand Reserve is miles ahead of Grandmaster. They aren't even in the same league. I'm not trying to be mean but Grand Reserve makes Grandmaster and Black Flag seem like House Juice. Grand Reserve also doesn't have a bad smell like BFF. The smell of that stuff is what put me off. Luckily it tastes better than it smells but still nothing compared to Grand Reserve.

I'm actually trying to find a nice caramel or other flavored coffee flavor to supplement Grand Reserve since its only released in batches. Anyone have any ideas?
