Great stories, everybody, you're cracking me up.
The only one I've had so far was New Haarlem, but that was as much due to my expectations. I'd just gotten it -- my first gourmand, not a style I usually like. But something just leapt out at me when I sampled it, and I loved it. Got home all excited, stuck out my arm, said to my wife, "What do you think of this?" And she said, "Ehh. Kind of powdery." And went back to what she was doing.
Totally dismissive! Not interested, one way or the other! Could not have cared less! Man, that was a bummer.
Oh well, I asked, right?
