2012 bottle. Black color with beige head. Aroma is chocolate sauce, a bit soy sauce, light roast. Taste is very sweet chocolate, vanilla. Fatty oily mouthfeel with low carbonation. Classic Eclipse taste, very sweet though.

At the great eclipse tasting. 2012 version ( as it’s the only version so far ) . Pours black, instantly fading off-white head. Smell is not as clear as the other versions. Some roastyness. Taste is very full, creamy whiskey, strong boozyness. Sharp, even ’feels’ boozy. Thick body, low carbo. Grainy, very roasty.

Bottle @ FiftyFifty Eclipse Charity Tasting. 2012 vintage. Opaque black color, average sized off-white to beige head. Aroma is malts, nice whiskey influence coming through, lightly vanilla. Taste malts, firm whiskey flavor, quite bitter finish actually. Quite heavy as expected. Medium to full body and firm carbonation.

Malzig rauchiger, etwas schokoladiger Antrunk. Vollmundig, der Alkohol ist zum Ende erkennbar. Kann süß, eher trocken, die Aromen sind nicht so intensiv wie sie sein könnten. 9/11/11/11//11
