pitch black color. Light brown head. Beautiful bourbon, oak, chocolate and coconut. Love this nose. Full bodied, chewy, medium roastiness with excellent bourbon, oak, vanilla and chocolate character. Slightly boozy but on a cold November day, that’s not a bad thing. I love the warming bourbon character at the end 8.2
