Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - opaque black with thin tan to fawn head. Nose - dark chocolate and an edge of raisin. Taste - really intense dark chocolate and raisin again. Palate - medium to full bodied, sweet but dry at the time. Great persistence. Overall - lovely traditional imperial.
