UPDATED: AUG 9, 2018 Bottle shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a deep brown to black with a small beige head that dissipates. Vanilla nose with bourbon and chocolate notes. Medium to full body with a slightly creamy mouthfeel. Flavors meld really well, with the vanilla coming in but not overwhelming. Very balanced with a lingering bourbon chocolate finish.

Deep dark brown under a thin off white cap. Bright whiskeyed nose that’s woody and lightly vanilla’d And chocolaty. Bold full flavor that’s dark and roasty and sweet with big whiskey warmth and a sweet vanilla finish. A little two dimentional but tasty all the same.

UPDATED: JAN 13, 2018 Pours black with a very thin head. Aroma is chocolate, vanilla and bourbon. Taste is sweet vanilla and chocolate, warming tonroast and finishing with bourbon. Not the best Framinghammer variant, but still tasty.

Bottle at RBSG. Another nice addition to the series, vanilla being a bit more boozy than the rest. Still sweet, a but tangy.
