Poured from 500mL bottle. Near black with very minimal beige head. Bourbon and chocolate nose. Taste is very rich fudgey chocolate, vanilla, touch of coffee, boozy bourbon notes (not overpowering). Great stuff.

500mL bottle, pours black with almost no head. Nose is pretty exquisite, with lots of deep bourbon barrels upfront, with plenty of coffee, and a hint of vanilla. Flavour is extremely intense, with a ridiculous of dark chocolate fudge, plenty of bourbon, followed by coffee and vanilla. That is some very rich chocolate and bourbon notes. Very complex, although maybe a tad bit abrasive. It's lovely though -- very thoughtfully crafted.

Bottle. Pours opaque black. Tiny beige head, minimal lacing. Aroma is high vanilla, chocolate liquor. Flavor is really sweet, liquor like. Full body, sticky.
