Bottle at home. Four years old. Pours a dark brown to black colour with a small light brown fast fading head. Aroma of smoke, roasted malt, chocolate truffles, rubber, nuts and smoked meat. Roasted flavour with lots of ash and very dark chocolate, coffee and some oak. Has a silky mouth feel, medium to full body and a medium bitterness. Nice smoke aroma, and the flavour is very burned with lots of roasted bitterness in the end. Feels a bit unbalanced. Powerful though.
