Neat. Neck pour. Right off the bat this hit me as something special. Brighter than I was expecting. This super nice French vanilla leads the nose, hint of mint behind it. Berries and cream. Sea salt caramel. Graham crackers and chocolate. Little honey too. Clearly just a wave through all these amazing desert flavors. The oak is less prevalent than other ECBP batches. The alcohol has less presence too considering the near hazmat proof. Syrupy and viscous as hell in the texture, I love that. Intense sweetness on the tongue. Brown sugar. The taste and finish are the verse of the nose. Starts out dark with chocolate and burnt caramel, transitions to the graham cracker and then into the vanilla and mint. There is also a very prevalent black pepper. Very drying and the oak is really showing up on the tail end of the finish. Great ECBP batch. Not overly oaky, dialed up to the max wave of dessert flavors. The high proof doesn’t come with an aggressive or spiky notes. Comparing to B519, B519 has some spiky alcohol notes on the nose. They are very similar. B519 has more spice and cherry. C919 has more caramel and vanilla on the nose. On the taste, B519 has some intense oak that is not on the C919. The turned down oak let’s the C919 shine a bit more. Both are great but the C919 is better.
