Backlog
Bomber. Brune foncĂ©e, col crĂ©meux cafĂ© au lait, dorĂ©e au verre. ArĂŽme rappelant un bon bol de cĂ©rĂ©ales, effluves de grains - surtout avoine bien prĂ©sent, effet de concassĂ©s, cafĂ© grillĂ© avec petite note de rĂ©glisse en rĂ©tro. Amertume modĂ©rĂ© arrive en rĂ©tro-nasal et accompagne un agrĂ©able effet de moka-cafĂ©. Palais est maltĂ©, caramel, effet grains-avoine bien prĂ©sent, fini sur lĂ©ger cĂŽtĂ© grillĂ© avec note de cafĂ©. Ăpaisseur de bouche se marque bien, rĂ©glisse aussi prĂ©sente et accompagne bien le caractĂšre du cafĂ©. Certaine douceur rĂ©siduelle arrive sur la fin.
