**Chocolate Fudge Brownie v.3 (CAP) 4% (1-19-23)** -- I started out using this flavor versions ago, and there was something special about the way that Capella captured the brownie flavor. This version was no different. One of my simple favorite-ist [brownie recipes](https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/10549/best-brownies/) was again, captured by this flavor. I knew the [v.2's were a/p free](https://www.capellaflavors.com/resource-flavor-list), but still not 100% clear on what the v.3 changed. I had the luxury of EATING some brownies, WHILE testing this one, hehe, for science and shit.
As with the previous versions, the chocolate was key, and did favor more of a cocoa, and you could almost get the flour and baking soda, especially on the finish, and that was what really separated this one from the rest of the brownie pack. At 4% it was very rich, and full and sweetness was about mid level. Little to no off notes, but there was a slightly dry finish. I'm still not sure if it's an off" note or not, as I think it added authenticity to the chocolate being more cocoa focused, than a creamy, or desert chocolate, which again, FITS the brownie profile. This is/was one of the darker flavors, and it did soil the coils a little more than a clear flavor, but nothing out of the ordinary for a daker flavor. 2nd tester in, my wife was growing tired of the "brownie fog" that I was creating. I searched for something, anything I could nit pick about, and the only slight tick off was the ever so slight dry finish. Very accurate brownie, and if you like brownies, and you haven't tried this one yet, you should. Finishing the 2nd tank, and this review, at a very good **9.5/10**."
