2024 can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a deep brown color with a finger of beige -tan head that lingers, then dissipates. Dark and milk chocolate on the nose with vanilla, bourbon and oak as it warms. Body is a bit thin and this comes through on the palate, but the milk chocolate, bourbon and vanilla all come through. Warming finish. Quite well done on the flavor side.
