To assess the sharpness:
This is of course subjective. Personally, I need for a pizza about 30 drops, then it is nice and sharp, but not so that I'll work up a sweat. Simply comfortable. When it comes to jazz up of relatively large amounts, such as chili con carne is or stew I do not use the After Death. For large quantities it's just not sharp enough. Here I use Blair's Sudden Death, which is a lot sharper. In her you really have to count the drops. For pure pleasure, it is in my opinion not suitable.
