Rich chocolate and maple balance nicely with the roasty coffee on the backside. A couple years has smoothed this out nicely, although it remains a little light on the bourbon barrel vibez. Dig the body...and at "just" 11%!

Fudge forward. Not overly sweet though - despite the maple - and there's some subtle barrel showing through. Also a bit of funky glass vibes, so guess my storage coulda been better. Solidly done, east 4.25

Roasty chocolate, a touch of chocolate, and some nice maple. Really smooth at 3 years and definitely not too sweet. Light on the barrel but a nice body. Almost 4.5

Aging really well with a way better barrel/maple balance than it had fresh. There's still some nice maple, particularly late, and also a bit of dark chocolate. Any coffee has faded, but it still has a solid body with a creamy finish

Roasty dark chocolate and robust coffee with some pleasant booziness & bitterness late. Barrel is present, but subtle and the body is full but not super full. Takes a bit, but I dig the subtle sweetness. Almost 4.5
