Bottle. Opaque black liquid with small to medium tan head. Aroma of wood, booze, bourbon, vanilla, licorice, chocolate and toffee. Taste is light to medium sweet and light bitter with notes of raw sugar, raisins, booze, bourbon and wood. Full bodied with low to medium carbonation. Lots of bourbon character. Bit over the top.

I have no clue who sent me this.
A - It pours viscous like dirty old motor oil. Looks viscous as Hell. No head at all. It’s pitch black, totally black and just thick.
S - Smells like straight up straight whiskey So much liquor on the nose but in no way burning or boozy just a huge liquor smell paired with the richest chocolate.
T - Whoa. The taste is incredible. A fuck ton of whiskey just gobs of it. A crap load of chocolate, a touch of hazelnut and some fresh espresso with layers of red velvet cake, vanilla bean, toffee and straight up brownie batter polished off with this gigantic whiskey explosion that lingers for ever!
M - Thick, oily, hearty and everlasting mouth coating thickness
O - This is not KBBS..not CBS BUT it is very much like a more whiskey forward bourbon county with gobs more chocolate. I still prefer BCS but this is pretty incredible!
