Pours an inky, motor-oil black body topped with a finger and a half of wavy, fluffy, mocha foam; solid head retention leaves a blank void of a cap, a frothing, bubbly collar, and no lacing holding to the walls of the glass.
Aroma is abundant with lush, rich chocolate cake batter and toasted honeycomb as bourbon-soaked vanilla caviar invites a relentless layering of sweetness balanced with bittersweet roast; a deft char intersperses fresh coffee and crisp graham cracker over time, while chewy caramel candy lingers on the final impressions.
Taste features melted caramel into burnt bakers chocolate upfront, with edges of toasty vanilla over the mid-palate finding subtle leather and tobacco across a bourbon overlay as an evolving barrel char births dark bakers chocolate through the finish.
Mouthfeel shows a body on the lighter end of medium, with silky textures carrying a warm, boozy punch spread evenly across the palate while a subtle, low-lying carbonation disperses a wispy grit across the mid-palate to a semi-creamy back end and roasty, dry finish.
A roasty base incorporates vanilla and honey with spectacular depth and a layered sweetness, proving an evocative accompaniment to the influences of old bourbon barrel; sublime cohesion of the approachably sweet and complexly oaky define this impressive barrel treatment.
