Very dark. Thin head. The aroma has some light chocolate, sweet and thick, with a touch of burnt fruit, and a rich vanilla character. Full body, a touch of booze, touch of vanilla, and sweet black sugars. The burnt fruit comes in only at the very end, only a little bit. Just enough to let you know that it’s there. That dark liquorice is pervasive throughout.

500mL bottle, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out rich bourbon barrels upfront, followed by roasted malt, and dry cocoa. Flavour is very rich, with loads of bourbon barrels upfront, followed by light roast and toasted malt. Rich, heavy, but wonderfully constructed. Excellent.
