Taste & Aroma
Some people may find its smoke somewhat harsh that offsets with sweet notes of berry accompanied by a profile of woody and earthy flavor. Though some do find it reasonably pungent, Purple Elephant usually generates an aroma of sweet and a slightly tart blending of grapes. Once the bud is broken, the mixed smell of pine and earth becomes more pronounced.
