It’s time to explore our eighth Lunar phase. After a slumber in Heaven Hill & Wild Turkey Bourbon barrels for 12 & 18 months, we woke the dense liquid before letting it condition on copious amounts of Cinnamon Cereal. Fun, dark and decadent.

Bottle at CBJ Tasting. Dark glossy cola brown. No head. Aroma has smokey spice and.underlying fruit. Flavourwise it's rich with a spicy dose. Develops some molasses and fruit. Medium bodied. Oily. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Confusing.

Bottleshare at CBJ. Thanks to Wingman for the bottle. Smooth palate, a little dry, good fine carbonation. Light bodied dark malts, a smooth and slightly sweet dark chocolate streak. Lots of sweet cinnamon. A mellow and pretty tangy bourbon fruity offset. A mild spice on the finish. Tidy but overly cinnamon for me. As in very. Too much. Fuck me less cinnamon please.
