12oz bottle pours a still, dark nut brown with no head. Big long legs. Nose has a lot of smoke, oak too, huge malt and caramel. Flavor follows with the smoke and it's a touch rubbery now. Reminds me of Ardbeg or something. Huge caramel and brown sugar. Very boozy. Some umami notes like ketchup or mushrooms that sometimes I find fun but don't in this. Very full bodied, long, sticky and boozy. I just don't find this well executed.
