Malty, roasted taste with notes of chocolate, dark bread, cacao, coffee, liquorice, toasted oats, dates, figs, molasses, a touch of orange peel and a mild roasty bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Smooth and mellow, really tasty and well balanced. Very nice.

Flska från SB. Mörkt brun med lågt skum. Söt doft med russin, toffee, svart vinbär, fat, cognac, sötlakrits. Söt smak, ganska komplex men väl söt, lite torrare och med mineraler i avslutningen. Väl sött annars intressant.

Dag 2 i Lokomotivværkstedet maj-19, fra flaske. Mørk mahogny med ok skum. Vinøst anslag der bringer tankerne i retning af en god sherry sammen med mørke bær og en lidt kaffeaktig bitterhed. Forfinet.

Pours pitch black, topped with a very thin and nonlasting tan head. Nice chocolate with vanilla aroma, a bit woody, some alcohol notes. Silky body, fairly full. Moderate chocolate, vanilla sweetness. Medium bitterness. Quite a lot of alcohol warmth with whisky feel. A bit too boozy and strong, but still pretty nice.
