As black as the dark arts. Aromas of fruited whisky with raspberry rising. Dark chocolate whisky liqueurs to taste with bright raspberry shining through. The tart fruit notes and bitter cocoa nibs melt perfectly with the sweet, floral and citrus speyside character. Delivered sour and dry with a gentle whisky warmth to finish.

Keg at BD AGM. It pours black with a small tan head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, tangy, cherry, rocky road, whisky, toffee, tangy, wood, rocky road, dark fruits, jammy, blackcurrant, bramble and vanilla. The taste is dry, tart, tangy, zingy, acidic, plum, date, bramble, blackcurrant, oak, zingy, fig, vinous, cranberry and acidity with a drying, tangy finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. A bit harsh, but fun. Will revisit.
