(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of Phil (motelpogo) who travelled the world for 3 months with this in his backpack to bring it to RBESG 2006 in Gothenburg. What an effort.... Pours a clear, reddish mahogany with a small, light brown head. Full and vinous aroma with sweetish, roasted malt and some dried fruit. Full-bodied and very complex with raisins and other drid and overripe fruit. Very warming alcohol and a subdued bitterness. A pleasure indeed. 260806

Pitch black, stready cream tan head. Parfumic alcohol and madeira wine in the nose. Liquerish palate, alcohol, toffee, some coffee. Nicely complex but maybe a bit overrated (when it was rated 4.13).

Bottle. They keep this in the fridge and it was way to cold to start off with, so i let it warm a little bit before i passed judgement. It was worth the wait because this was quite good. Quite sweet and a little sticky, but with a enough roasty bitterness to balance things. Dark fruit, bruised fruit, toffee, mocha, there is some nice complexity in here. Too sweet if anything, but i’m being a little picky when i say that, because this was very nice.
