0.33l bottle from Sir Williams, shared with Hrabren and Ogi. Very dark brown body, no head. Excellent, sweetish aroma, brown sugar, raisins, creamy, obvious barrel really, dryish. Lean, dry taste, cocoa, brown sugar, tart, cookie notes, lightly, lightly herbal. Full enough, very well balanced, very drinkable for the ABV, holding up after all these years. Excellent!
