Bottle pour at Mikkeller Tokyo, pours black with no head. Aroma is boozy as hell, with lots of cognac barrel character, some roast, and a touch of dark sugars. Flavour is silky and strong, with intense cognac, dark sugars, and light molasses. Boozy and big, but cohesive and well-constructed. Excellent but not their finest concoction.
