Upfront, they were not perfect. The recipe I got was good/treaty and it definitely scratched the same kind of itch, but I don't think it was particularly close in terms of flavor.

HOWEVER, I think there are several factors to improve results.

  1. Not everyone you could hire is going to be the same caliber. Some will be better than others and finding the best may not be easy. I don't think I ended up hiring the best candidate.

  2. Actual sample analysis. I was prepared to send the scientist a sample of the drink but they claimed they didn't need it and I trusted their judgment. In the future, I would look to hire only someone who will analyze the sample with lab equipment.
