A 330ml bottle with a best before date that is not legible anymore but is sometime in 2018. Poured into a snifter.
Appearance: Black in colour with pretty much no head and only sparse spotty lacing.
Aroma: Sweetish milk chocolate, coffee, cocoa and vanilla.
Taste: Sweet, light dark fruit, bittersweet chocolate, cocoa, espresso. coffee, cream and hints of vanilla.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, smooth, medium to full bodied with low carbonation.
Overall: Nice and easy to drink. Doesn’t feel like 11% abv at all.

This one is by far one of the best Russian Imperial Stouts I've ever had.
It`s pours very thick dark-brown, it almost looks like a liquor.
The smell clearly ressembles the one of the dark-milky chocolate.
The taste is so good it`s riddiculous. You can clearly taste the chocolate, the expresso and the vanilla, altogether. My first drink on this was a surrealistic experience.
The after taste its the of a fresh well-done italian expresso.
The only flaw for me it`s on the lack of a creamy foam, thats the signature for stouts.

A: Almost headless. Hmm.
S: Nothing much, just metallic.
T: Vanilla extract/rumness. Very sticky, medicinal and sweet like a barley wine. A touch earthy.
O: Pretty good.
