Bottle, huge thanks Kermis for sharing! Pitch black body, fleeting head. Lovely cocoa notes in the aroma, low beeries underneath, sweet, caramel, light vanilla, not much alcohol. Sweetish taste, cake-like, some dried figs, cocoa, black currants giving it some sourness but restrained enough. Working nicely, not too much warmth either - a reasonable amount. Smooth, lean, drinkable.. weeellll, we have a winner!

Bottle shared with Marko. Black with pretty much no head. Aroma shows off the blackberries with obvious bourbon barrel notes, chocolate, vanilla and toffee. Flavour is heavy sweet.
