James,
I was waiting for this review…
I remember trying this one when it was a year or two off the press. At that time it was mainly bitter and fruity, somewhat floral and smoky. It was pretty undrinkable and powerful at that time.
The coco which you mentioned which often comes out of these Mengku cakes seems to develop as the bitter taste transforms.
I agree with you that a lot of factory cakes have this certain taste to them that is similar but hard to explain.
