Review and Tasting

Sampled on 30/10/2019

Appearance:

Clear but so dak that almost opaque, deep tawny brown.

Aroma:

Pungent, heavily roasted coffee and dark chocolate with very faint chicory.

Taste:

Intense. Dry, strong espresso coffee and bitter cacao with black pepper and cinnamon. Faint liquorice and chicory.

Aftertaste:

Black pepper spice and faint chili-like heat linger in the long cognac, coffee and chocolate finish.

Overall:

Cognac notes are present but subtle on the nose and palate but shine in the long finish of this intensely flavoured, dry and complex coffee liqueur.
