Blac and thick with nice rimming and lacing. Sweet vanilla chocolate caramel along with a slight toffee. Full full body, syrupy, with almost not carb

Sweet caramel and brown sugar, a hint of dark fruits, floral vanilla, and a vanilla-bourbon barrel nose on this one! Taste follows with a full and smooth, caramel and vanilla candy chews, a touch dry, and a subtle bourbon barrel finish. This is good stuff even though I am not the biggest fan of intrusive adjuncts in my Lyfe. I think this would have been better if it has a little more nuance from the barrels and the vanilla was dialed back a bit.
