A nightcap. The appearance is relatively transparent, copper. The carbonation is timid. The emerging head is truly restrained. Ample rum barrel emanates to my nose. Cane sugar, biscuit, malt, white wine, green grape, waffle, a suggestion of vanilla and remote bubblegum. That's a long list of nuances that I manage to observe in the air to top up the main input. The taste is sweeter than what I was prepared for. A bit shocking... Cane sugar, predominantly. Rum, oak barrel notes, white wine, green grape, biscuit, orange zest and a proposal of vanilla. Almost an identical lineup of flavors on the tastebuds. The body is medium-full. Ends with rum, white wine and soaked barrel nuances. Orange peel and apricot accompany in the distance. The mouthfeel is intense, mellow, rich, deep, relatively heavy, barrel aged, moderately alcoholic and warming. Complex. Slightly lip-glueing. And heady, which shouldn't come as a surprise. A big beer, and a definite slow sipper, but quite demanding, as well.

Packaging impeccable, arômes clairs et distincts (café), longueur étonnante.

Ambrée triple mâturée en fût de whisky. Voile fumé agréable.
