Bottle at home shared with Laura. Black color, dark brown colored head that diminishes quickly. Aroma is malts, firm bourbon. Flavor is malts, bourbon, light soy sauce, booze, malt bitters in between the sweet bourbon notes. Nice.

Sweet, smooth and slightly roasty with some coffee notes, vanilla, bourbon, stingy wood, oak and warming alcohol notes. A bit boozy and thin bodied, but otherwise quite tasty

Pours like motor oil, black with a light brown head that doesn't last long. Aroma's: sweet, boozy (but not bourbon actually, more like cognac or so), umami, sour fruity. Retronasal: boozy, sweetish, woody. Flavour is moderate sweet, alcoholic, light woody. Strong alcohol feel, warming. Full bodied. Not much development in the finish. Nice, but I don't get much coffee or bourbon tbh.

Black with thin soapy head. Aroma of vanilla and heading slightly towards soy sauce. Thick texture. Bit hit of alcohol, perhaps too much. There's a slight savoury element too.
