Bottle shared by CLW--thanks, Chris! Opaque, inky black with nice viscosity. Aroma is strong bourbon (evident from over a foot away), coconut, vanilla, chocolate, mild spice. Taste is strong, balanced, coconut, vanilla, bourbon, late chocolate and a pleasant spiciness (cinnamon?). Smooth, thick, silky texture, full bodied, finish as taste. Wonderful smoothness, complexity, balance and strength. Reminiscent of a Mounds bar. A true pleasure.

500 ml bottle. Aroma is huge vanilla, chocolate, and moderate bourbon. Flavor burst with coconut upfront, mild vanilla, and a very mild soft bourbon finish. Slick, viscous mouth feel. Full body. Alcohol is barely noticed. This is like a liquid Mounds bar with bourbon. This is exceptional!
