Witch-King of Angmar, sleeping it off in the gutter

Coven by Andrea MaackAndrea MaackCoven3.929 ratings
4/5

I’ve received so many samples of Andrea Maack's Coven I can’t deny that there is a sickly sweet rot at play here, like the dark shadows of Dol Guldur slowly encroaching the Greenwood forest as the feral wizard Radagast the Brown watches in horror while the vegetation blackens and decays before his eyes and many of his beloved animal friends are sick or dying. As it dries, the whiskey becomes apparent, and a strange, sour cumin note emerges to combine with the mossiness and the sense of black mold and mildew and it conjures a sort of hungover Witch-King of Angmar, sleeping it off in the gutter, badly in need of a bath.
