75cl Fles, sample bij Kerst/NY tasting Zaandam. Zwarte kleur, dunne beige kraag. Boozy, vanillesuiker, eik, bourbon, marshmallows, gebrande mout, chocolade, lijkt in 1e instantie heftig zoet maar wordt met opwarmen steeds beter, de vatrijping komt wat meer naar voren wat erg fijn is. Volle body, al is het niet de blubberdikke rammer die verwacht werd, nog altijd erg lekker.

750 ml bottle. Aroma is vanilla, almond, chocolate. Flavor shows a lot of nuts. Chocolatey cacao nibs give bold chocolate. Thick , almost syrupy texture. Almost too sweet. ALMOST!!

Bottle from Lighthouse Liquors at Camp Tasting Finale. Opaque, inky black with nice viscosity, no head, no lacing. Aroma is well-balanced vanilla, nuts, cacao, caramel, bourbon. Taste is strong cacao, vanilla, caramel, bourbon, late nuts. Thick texture, full bodied, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Excellent complexity, balance, strength.

750mL bottled 2021, shared by tfontana on 8/9/25.
Possibly clear, mahogany, little head.
Smells of cherry-vanilla, soft, sweet bourbon and earthy cacao. Not too much adjunct with good oak and drying biscuit. Not boozey. Rich and fruity with a rye spiciness and long chocolate.
A bit thinned out with paper and chocolate. Light pepper and a bit of sweet syrupy. Chocolatey and dried out. Just a bit watery and thin, which is odd. Nose is killer, though.
