Can, 12C. Black with less than a coat of tan head. 3- Aroma is indeed pastry-like - baklava, coffee, roast. Almost syrupy, low carbonation. But then not as sweet as expected with nut skin, bitter roast and firm bitterness keeping things under control. Very rich though - mocha, only hints of cinnamon, roast, vanilla syrup. The bitterness is needed but does start to nag after 150ml - as usual I'd like something like this in a smaller can than 440ml. But still, it's very good.
