Aged nicely. Maybe tasting a bit sharper and … woodier? … than before. (And this isn’t the BBA version.)

Big, bold, and edgy. Roast, dark chocolate, traditional espresso, salted black licorice, and alcohol. Aggressive bitterness. Viscous mouthfeel. Slightly harsh on the palate with noticeable astringency. Overall I'm happy.

Stored since July and consumed in what seems to be the right occasion. Lost the rubbing alcohol harshness that comes with a fresh RIS, cocoa nibs notes and on the nose, as well as a slight dark roast coffee finish. Pairs well with political manipulation
