Bottled at Bishops Arms Hornsgatan, Stockholm. Black, small head. Aroma of sweet licorice and coffee. Sweet with full body and rounded mouthfeel. Sugar, sweet licorice some aniseed and caramel. Warming finish. Correct, flavourful and quite gentle, but lacking the complexity needed for it size. Good, but not great.
