I've bought 2 pounds of Uroboros. The first was nice, and the second had bubbles all through it - every gather had to be picked clean.
Effetre, Uroboros, CIM, Lauscha - I've had great batches of all of these, and bad ones, too. Lauscha, at least, was about 90% good. I'd happily buy Effetre or Uroboros all the time if their quality wasn't so inconsistent. I tolerated that kind of stuff for years, and I'm really glad I don't have to any more. I don't think that Double Helix has the best facilities, and maybe not even the best recipe, but they do have the highest commitment to quality and the best quality control.
