50cl bottle pours a nearly opaque black with a ring of tan head. Nose has malt and cocoa and black pepper. Solid and not overdone. Vanilla is there with something like bay leaf. Flavor is a bit simpler. Good news is, the barrel arrives with some char and caramel. Barrel likely compliments the vanilla too. Well balanced. Sweet, but not overly. Medium full. 8 8.5 8.5 8 8
