2016 bottle thanks to Tad. It pours oily opaque black with a tiny quickly dark tan head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, quite intoxicating, dark chocolate, molasses, big rum character which jumps out, cola cubes, chocolate cake, rum baba, vanilla and a touch of toasted coconut. The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, slick, oily, unctuous, rich roasted malt, toasty, sticky, chocolate cake, very fruity stuff, loads of rum, toasted brown sugar, cola cubes, coconut, vanilla, damp rum soaked oak and some pleasing booze alcohol warmth through the finish. Fulsome body, fine carbonation and slick, oily mouth feel. Great depth of flavour. Those barrels must have been very fresh.
