650ml bottle. Sweet, malty and caramely with some bourbon, toffee and syrup. Some oxidation notes. Quite complex and balanced

Pours dark brown, rather clear. Small white head. Scent is extremely sweet, chocolate, raisins, dade, caramel. Taste is full, intense, caramel, dried fruits. Mild alcohol. Lovely BW, even anno 2021 this is still a masterpiece.

Aromat bardzo delikutasny, landrynkowo kandyzowany. W uscie gesto, slodko, kandyzowano. Calosc nie jkas zlozona ale mocno elegancka. Gdzies w tle rodzynki? Jakies waniliny migdalowe? Klasa ale bez efekty łał

Bottle, 2015. Pous mahogany, small beige head, dissipates pretty quickly, leaving a ring, some lacing. Aroma is vanilla, bourbon, toffee, date, raisin, cherry, oak tannin, toasted caramel, pine resin. Flavor is pretty sweet, light plus bitter, hugely decadent. Medium body, lingering bitterness. Pretty xolid.

Bottle at share. Near dark brown , small ring of head. Malty, dry. Taste is leathery malts, but far too dry. BW overload today.

A bottle on Black Christmas 2016 at 12 Kings. Pours a dark reddish copper with a tan head. Aroma is chocolate, dark fruits, some barrel notes. Taste is the same character, very sweet, slightly boozy. Amazing, but I would prefer fewer spices.
