leaparsons (3906), Leicester, Leicestershire, England May 10, 2005 Bottle. Black with a beige bubble head. Aromas are earthy, sweet and dry with coffee and chocolate. Flavours are chocolate and coffee with some peatiness. Smooth on the palate and dry on the finish. A little thin, but decent. The cask version is better.
