Shared 650 ml bottle, vintage 2015, at local tasting. ABV is 8.1%. Black colour, tan head. Roasty aroma, vinous hints with oak, vanilla, chocolate and molasses. The medium sweet flavour has the same elements, also coffee. Pretty good stuff.

Fra flaske på romjulstreff i RBHD des-16: brunsvart med ok skum. Nydelig aroma av kaffe m/tilbehør. Smaken likeså, her skal ikke en dråpe gå til spille. Rett før jeg kommer i evangeliseringsmodus! Kompleks og avrundet. Balansekunst de luxe. Kveldens desidert beste til nå.
