Imperial Stout 11 º

Kashmir
Birrificio Abruzzese

Kashmir Nat is a decadent, deep-pitched Imperial Stout that leverages a double-mash technique to achieve a luxurious, velvety depth. The sensory journey begins with an intense bouquet of espresso and bittersweet dark chocolate, softened by the aromatic warmth of real vanilla beans. Integration of bourbon barrel cubes imparts a refined oak character and spirit-forward complexity that weaves through the roasted core. Despite its formidable 11% ABV and dense, chewy texture, the finish remains balanced rather than cloying, offering a lingering sensory experience of toasted malt and spicy American whiskey notes that provide a comforting, enveloping character.

Appearance. Opaque, jet black (SRM 40+); pours with a thick, creamy, deep tan head that shows moderate retention and leaves persistent lacing. High viscosity is evident in the presence of visible legs.

Aroma. High intensity with complex layers of roasted coffee, dark cocoa, and charred grain. Distinctive notes of floral vanilla and oaky bourbon are prominent, supported by subtle esters of dried plums and raisins. A clean, warming alcohol presence is noticeable.

Taste. An intense initial impression of bittersweet chocolate and espresso is quickly followed by the creamy sweetness of vanilla beans. The middle palate features bourbon-soaked oak and caramel. Firm bitterness balances the massive malt backbone, leading to a long, warming, and harmonious finish that avoids being syrupy.

Mouthfeel. Full to very full-bodied with a velvety, chewy, and luscious texture. Low to moderate carbonation. A smooth, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present throughout without being harsh or solventy.
