330ml bottle. Pours almost black with a tan head. Aroma of coffee, dark chocolate, roast malts. Taste of coffee, roast malts, dark chocolate, touch of dark fruits, caramel, roasty bitterness, nicely balanced. Medium bodied, smooth, fine carbonation. Great coffee stout, thought it was a little weak at first but it developed nicely and really grew on me the more I drank.

Bottle, 0.33l, courtesy of Tomi. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. Pours pitch black color with thin creamy light brown head and nice lacing. Taste starts with medium sweet and rich roasted malt and bitter coffee, follows by chocolate, licorice, marmalade and citrus, mouthfeel is silky and warming, while finish is mild grass bitter. Full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Smooth and drinkable as an ice coffee...

Pours pitch black, topped with medium sized beige head, semi lasting. Medium coffee nose, not so strong on roastiness with some chocolate notes which are very pleasant. Moderate sweetness with milk chocolate, gentle coffee and some bitterness. Medium body. Very nice, I like thst coffee is present but very held back.

Bottle a tasting home in Hackney - picked up at Nosferatu in Sofia. Pours black with a thick, foamy khaki head. Ashy roast in the nose, well toasted coffee beans, cocoa. Medium sweet flavour with a lot of bittersweet baking cocoa, assertive coffee, chicory, some leathery berries. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation and velvety texture. Lightly warming in the finish, with more Rich and rounded chocolate character, sturdy bittersweet coffee, a little scorched earth, burnt toffee. Great stuff overall. Good depth, well balanced.
