Dark brown pour with some red hue shining through. Some beige bubbles on the top. Sweet chocolate nose, soft, dark fruits like ripe plums and maybe figs there. Taste is also sweet, high abv but soft and creamy. Booze coming out with a bit of spicy bourbon kick. Pretty awesome, finish has some more plain booze and lingering herbal bitterness. Pretty nice.

65 cl bottle vintage 2017@ olio Aroma has bourbon and and quite nothing else. Flavour has quite strong bourbon tones, vanilla and woody tones. One bourbon juice. Hides the ABV really well; I thought this was 8-9%.

An extremely solid imperial stout, besides the barrel aging no fuss or other foodstuff items thrown in. Smooth, rich, thick and creamy. Good dose of bourbon. Really enjoyable, very well made.
