Pours a deep brown to black with a full finger of beige foam that dissipates. Huge maple and coffee aromas on the nose. Thick and good mouthfeel. Maple all over the palate with more coffee, cacao nib and light vanilla notes as it warms. Smooth and booze hidden well. Balanced and leans sweet, but not overly so. Digging this one.
