Taster. A lot of maple, some oak. Taste has more prominent oak, but maple is, of course, more intense. Pretty good.

12 oz. can, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma is super rich and complex, with intense coffee, maple syrup, dark sugars in general, and rich roasted malt. Flavour is rich, with a wonderful marriage of the coffee and maple syrup – the sweetness from the syrup is cut down by the dark roast of the coffee – along with roasted malt and molasses. Not really getting the barrels, other than maybe a slight woodiness to it that dries things out. Complex, harmonious, and surprisingly easy to drink given what it is. Wonderful.

355mL can. Pours black with a beige head. Very rich maple syrup and coffee, some wood on the nose. The flavour has combined the maple syrup and coffee very well, the maple is dry enough to not be overpowering. The whiskey barrels are present, but definitely in the background of the maple and coffee. This is excellent.
