Nose: Espresso, dates, Dundee cake, blueberry and a herbal, slightly pepperminty floral note. Rich and quite savoury, balanced with cane sugar and treacle notes. Increasingly chocolatey.
Palate: Rich coffee cake with coffee beans as well as roasted notes, more dates, treacle and dark chocolate.
Finish: Very long, rich and earthy. Both slightly sweet and slightly bittersweet. More please!
Overall: It's hard to know which notes come from which element here as the sweet, fruity Yirgacheffe coffee clearly sings through, but is supported so well by the bitter coffee-like notes and slight fruitiness of the chicory as well as the vanilla and cane sugar. Bloody delicious.
Now pass me that cocktail shaker and some orange bitters, I've got an idea...
