Poured at fridge temp. Pours a VERY thick black with zero head. The nose is amazing. Loads of coffee, coconut, vanilla, dark chocolate, marzipan, dark fruit, bourbon, caramel, a slight vinous note, and a nice note of Christmas fruit cake.
The taste complex. The coffee is quite strong on this one. Vanilla, roasted malts, Christmas cake, bourbon soaked cherries, almond, coconut, maple, and a pretty significant red wine type note (especially on the back end and aftertaste). So much going on here!
The mouthfeel is super thick. The aftertaste is maple syrup sweetness and cherries covered in chocolate.

Poured cold to a small snifter. Color is turbid dark chestnut. No head, very little noticeable carbonation, glass-staining all day. Aroma is heavy in the coffee, with a bit of molasses. First blush in flavor is a little disjointed, but it’s still very cold from fridge. The coffee is nice, the maple brings up the back, and the almond is hard to detect, maybe doing more for the dirtier mouthfeel than an actual flavor vein. 12% ABV hides well. The Willett does bring a small tannic quality very late to the sip. They dropped the price from $25 to $18 for the 500ml, which I appreciate immensely. I might get more, but if the new Oil Works is better (Woodford Reserve…IYKYK…), then I might go that route.
