Bottle, courtesy of drfabulous, pours with a deep dark void of a body that supported a short lived dark tan head of foam. The aroma offers up smooth bourbon and invited chocolate and vanilla. Nice. The taste delivers a rich rewarding blend of smooth booze boosted bourbon sweetness rolling around in a pool of soft vanilla goodness and a bit of chocolate. To midway the big ABV starts to warm this experience up as well as cutting into the richness with a modest boozy sting creating a nice balance across the palate. Solid sipper. I love this.

0.375L bottle, courtesy of drfabulous, pours with a dark mahogany colored body that supports a thin ring of light tan foam. The modest aroma offers up a blend of oak and bourbon followed by oak nuanced dates and plums. The taste delivers a punishing beat down of rich and boozy goodness. I get the same boozy bourbon softened spicy oak, bourbon and more booze as noted in the nose. The boozy barrel character is forward but there's a nice smooth supple undercurrent of sweet rich dark fruity esters creating just the right sipping balance. The fruity esters are date and plums swimming in a thin pool of molasses. This is a bracing yet rewarding sipper.

12oz can, courtesy of drfabulous, pours with a clear mahogany colored body that supports a nice light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up plum and fig like fruity esters as well as faint roasted malts and winter spices. The taste follows suit as I'm getting a smooth slick sweet load of dark fruity esters as well as thin murmurs of roasted, crystal and caramel like maltiness. This also delivers a modest degree of winter spices to help create more depth and balance. Really nice offering.
