I dig the black pepper, cocoa, anise and stewed fruit bouquet, and the blueberry, blackberry and unsweetened chocolate palate profile. The mouthfeel is silky smooth, and a bit rich thanks to lots of caramel. The finish is a bit of a conundrum— there's big, sweet ripe berry fruit at first, but it ducks out before you know it and leaves you with a substantial amount of ash and black pepper. Not that pepper's a bad thing, but I do wish that I had some warning.
