Notes from 9/26/14 BK Black Ops '08 vintage 10.7% abv. Adorable Duck Rabbit snifter. Cork spares my eyes, but still had some kick. Slick, espresso head. Matte black body. Head lingers & coats the glass on every spin. Smells of sharp, charred malt & burnt toast. A bit vinous. Rich bourbon glaze. Cigar smoke, dark chocolate, black coffee, burnt sugar. Tasty. Oxidation is starting to show though. Wood ash, burnt bbq, some slight edges of dark fruit peaking through. Pretty dense, creamy body, just barely cut by some beady carbonation. Still pretty boozy after all these years. Waxy. Thanks for the gift Al.

Cellar bottle direct from Eve's. Extra crispy, off-dry edging sweet, honey, apple core, enough acid, medium tart, minerally, pedestrian tannic finish. Still a great price for what you get.

Aged keg @ RLRL w/GoT. I feel like I was never told how old it was. Pretty stemware. Dark iced tea, still pour. Caramel, some oxidation, leather, dried dark fruit. Tart, cherry skin, lime, bruin classy, red grape skin, big oxidation. Past it's prime. Just okay.

2012 bottle vintage, 6.4%, stemless pour @RLRL. Still, dark ruby, no chunks. Dark fruit, raisin, port, chocolate oxidation, veg, Dr pepper spice. Carbonic & real acidy upfront. Old fruit, sour plum, lemon juice, peach pit, subtle cider vinegar sweetness. Rindy, bitter earth, decent oxidation, somewhat boozy. Complex, but it was a bit too old. BB: 29/03/2022. Cheers.
