A Ferrero Roche, classy A.F., choco-hazelnut victory!
I have had a favorite hazelnut flavor for several years (FW Hazelnut)…. But SSA Smooth Hazelnut Filling might just have overtaken it. The best part about this is that it’s a totally different type of Hazelnut, so it’s opening up a whole new world of ideas. Okay, so this flavor is extremely reminiscent of Ferrero Roche chocolates, the inside of which holds a ridiculously delicious Hazelnut filling. This flavor has an insane, creamy chocolateyness and a perfectly accurate nut profile that isn’t really your average hazelnut flavor…. but a sweeter, classier combination of the two. FA has a flavor called Hazel Grove that is close, but more finicky and less delicious. I used this one as a main note @ 2.5% and it’s actually quite great as a single flavor recipe if ya add a bit of sweetener.

A somewhat relaxed creamy hazelnut with a hint of chocolate
**Smooth Hazelnut Filling (SSA) 1% / 2% (12-16-23)** -- As was the case with a few of these new(er) flavors, I did have to double this one up from 1% to 2% for an improved experience At 1% I got a very light, creamy hazelnut, with a hint of chocolate, and doubling did increase the overall profile somewhat. It was still a somewhat laid back flavor, and at 2% it was getting a litter darker in my tester tanks. At 2%, I got the same slightly creamy hazelnut with an increased chocolate. I never really felt like it took on a full on Nutella, but it was TRYING to head that way. After a few testers, and doubling this one, it seemed like it would be better suited as a mixer/baser, than the star of the show. It seemed like it needed a litte "more" to really pop, but I left it solidly at 2% for the remaining tests. At the higher weight, it was somewhat improved, and with no real off-notes, except a slight bitterness, BUT, that actually worked to authenticate the hazelnut. Sweetness levels were a few ticks below mid-level sweet, and overall the hazelnut DID seem to be more pronounced than the chooclate. With the chocolate lower in the mix it was hard to fully flush out, and it was more of a mid dark chocolate, which did seem to pair well with the HN. All in, an interesting flavor, but due to it's fairly relaxed nature, even doubled, I think it would be best suiting for adding as a mixer to a recipe. Tasty, but it just never really wowwed me. Placing it at a **7.5/10**.
