375ml bottle. Jet black colour with minimally late awakening, average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, tan head. Nutty and roasty, dark malty, slightly woody and minimally alcoholic aroma, notes of coconut, toasted coconut, hints of Tequila-like liqueur on plant basis with a touch of thinner, some cocoa, a touch of pecan. Taste is sweet-ish, chocolately, dark malty, vinous fruity alcoholic, slightly nutty, notes of cocoa, coconut, toasted coconut, grappa, hints of blue grapes; lingering, sweet, chocolately and fruity finish. Viscous texture, smooth, soft and silky, minimally cloying palate, fine and soft carbonation. Very homogeneous, interesting interplay of fruity and nutty flavours in combination with alcohol driven liqueur (Grappa/Tequila) flavours, quite heavy overall; rather unique variety in this multifaceted style - interesting, good, but not high-end category.
