This Imperial Stout presents an opulent sensory journey centered on an extensive infusion of Nicaraguan cacao nibs. The experience is defined by an intense aromatic profile of rich dark chocolate and freshly roasted coffee, underpinned by deep esters of dried plums and figs. On the palate, the Nicaraguan beans contribute distinctive fruity nuances that brighten the heavy, bittersweet chocolate core. Expect a profound malt backbone with layers of black licorice and charred grain, leading into a lingering, velvety finish. The 12.5% ABV provides a sophisticated warmth that harmonizes with the decadent, chewy texture of this massive, well-integrated stout.
Appearance.Jet black and completely opaque (40+ SRM). It pours with a thick, dense, dark tan head that exhibits moderate retention and leaves significant lacing. High viscosity is visible as legs on the glass.
Aroma.High intensity and complex, dominated by bittersweet chocolate, cocoa powder, and espresso. Secondary notes of dark fruits like raisins and prunes mingle with a subtle hint of black licorice. A clean, noticeable alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated.
Taste.An initial wave of rich dark chocolate and charred malt gives way to a complex fruitiness reminiscent of dark berries. Firm hop bitterness and roasted grain provide balance to the sweet, malty core. The finish is long and bittersweet, featuring lingering notes of coffee, cocoa, and warm alcohol.
Mouthfeel.Full-bodied and exceptionally chewy with a velvety, luscious, and creamy texture. Carbonation is low to moderate. A significant, smooth alcohol warmth is noticeable but not sharp or solventy.
