12 oz. bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is full of toasted nuts, medium roast, oak, and attenuated out dark sugars. Flavour is full of dry toasted oak, whiskey barrels, medium roast, and a hint of vanillin. Fairly dry, finishing with plenty of whiskey and toasted oak, with minimal sugars. Excellent.
