This one is not going to be for everyone. Don't let the nose put you off. Nose: Musty roasted malt. *Immediately reminds me of Chocolate Malted Rye. Some oak, cherry is faint. Cocoa. Taste: cocoa and baked fruit with maybe some orange zest. Finish remains the same. Malt and cocoa. I am not generally a malt fan. For bourbon. But this is good. Perfect pairing to the stout!
