What Our Editors Thought
“Big barrel notes in the aroma with just a touch of dark fruit and a zippy ethanol whirr. Dark and fruity in the flavor, chocolate power chords with dark and tropical fruits cut through by a wailing alcohol solo.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Burnt toffee and raisin, brandy and whiskey, vanilla and wood in the aroma. Complex and interesting with tobacco, toffee, chocolate. Slight candied grape, whiskey, and chocolate in the medium-long finish.”
What the Brewers Say
“Blend of English barleywines aged in wheat whiskey then Armagnac barrels.”
