375mL bottle, pours jet black with almost no head. Nose has subtle bourbon upfront, with gentle walnuts, a touch of cocoa, and some dark sugars. Flavour is fairly mild for Jackie O’s, with gentle bourbon, toasted nuts, dark sugars, and light vanillin. Seems a little oxidized, but has some nice soft bourbon on the finish. It’s a little underwhelming but good.

Semmi hab, fekete szín. Csokis, kakaós, aszalt gyümölcsös, bourbonos, vaníliás, hordós illat. Édes, csokis, kakaós, aszalt gyümölcsös, vaníliás, egy picit diós íz, whiskey-s, enyhe fás lecsengéssel, némi kávés utóízzel. Nagy test, szinte semmi szénsav, közepes keserű. Nagy sör, eszméletlenül finom.

Bottle from Dasha: pours oily black and small beige head. Aroma is walnut, dark chocolate, booze, vanilla, bourbon. Taste is sweet, nutty, vanilla, sort of boozy. Intense.

During Jackie O's TTO after MBCC first day. Shared with Phill, Balder, Will, Brian, and Ryan. Dark fruits, bourbon barrel, a bit boozy. Good one.

Bottle. A- Bourbon, cocoa, oak. A- Black color, black liquid, no head. T- Green apple, tangy, cocoa, oak. P- Full body, average texture, medium carbonation, tangy finish. O- This smelled nice but the immediate taste after made it pretty clear that this was a bad bottle. Really sad about that because I had lots of hope for this but as pricey as it was I don't know if I'll grab another or not. Somewhat still drinkable. Bottle was 3 years old form 2018.
