Obviously this is off the charts, stratospherically awesome in every way possible. I'd have to do a blind taste test with Hartford and Alaska (why is that so low?) to see which i prefer most, but luckily i can just enjoy all three. From memory, i'd have to say Alaska, which takes nothing away from the other two

Flat out mesmerizing, deep thick funk SWAGGER. My favorite. Agree with previous comparisons to Cornell (re: flubs, depth, etc) - this is the go-to for me
