Roasted/smokey character with loads of cocoa pow, tobacco, and oxidized ripe black fruits.

Absolutely fabulous - bright, honeyed - lychee, honeydew, white balsamic, toffee, chestnut and butterscotch. Screeching acidity and length. A beautiful taste of history #sommcon

AWesome to try, preferred this over the 1922 but both were still great with longer aging potential.
