375mL bottle, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma is full of extremely rich vanilla beans, big bourbon barrels, and molasses. Flavour is extremely rich, with intense vanilla beans, followed by deep bourbon barrels, and sazerac cocktail notes that don’t overtake too much. The vanilla is the highlight, held together by the high-quality base; and the sazerac and bourbon work together very well. Lovely.

On tap at Rorschach, pours jet black with a small brown head. Nose is full of intense tequila barrels, molasses, dark sugars, and a touch of roast. Flavour is largely a function of the tequila barrels, with notes of agave, dark sugars, and molasses. Low roast, moderate sugars, with a silky, oily palate. Wonderful.
