Description: | This stout is heaviest on the bourbon influence of the bunch, with a two-year maturation period spent inside barrels that once held 10-year-old Eagle Rare, the wildly popular Buffalo Trace bourbon. Dark and rich on the nose, the Reserve Stout is packed with dark chocolate and coffee, joined by undercurrents of almond, cherries and figs. Remarkably rich, syrupy and viscous, the palate is big and bold with a major cherry cordial notes, joined by dark chocolate, barrel char, vanilla and salted caramel. The finish is rich and mocha-heavy. It leaves you yearning for another sip with some nuttiness and a ton of barrel char. This is truly the quintessential barrel-aged stout. | |
