This nightcap pours opaque black and extraordinarily thick. The thickness is so astonishing that it invites me to check the ingredients – indeed, the list is confusing, including ice cream powder with whey powder, various e-coded thickeners, emulsifiers and colors, as well as dextrose, citrus fiber and vanilla seed.
Alright, back to business. The carbonation is timid while the emerging foamy lid looks like medium-dark chocolate mousse.
The scent is equally confusing and refuses to let me off the hook easily. I pick orange, blackberry, blackcurrant and cherry whereas I'm supposed to receive mango and banana according to the label. Bourbon hovers beneath the fruity elements of the fragrance. Dark chocolate, raw cacao powder, molasses and bitter syrup send their vibes to my nose, as well.
The taste is really thick. I still can't find mango but at least I can imagine banana on my tastebuds. Raw green banana. In addition, blackcurrant, blackberry, a suggestion of cherry and a sweet pungent citrus lands on the tongue, too. And yes, Bourbon with its vanilla-imitating barrel notes is evident here. The maltbase is composed of dark chocolate mousse, raw cacao powder, cookie and toasted oat flakes.
The body is absolutely robust. The tail swings with chocolatey and fruity flavors, pretty much like what they were in the earlier gustatory sphere, as well.
The mouthfeel is massive, thick, smoothie-like, deep and relatively rich. It's certainly barrel aged, mouthcoating and sticky. Exceeded my expectations big time! 🖤🖤🖤

Bizarrement pas ma came alors que j'adore le style. Bref je ne reprendrai pas. En tout cas il y a du travail.
