It was hard to let this rest untouched all these years (Release 1 - Bottle 50), but I shared this beauty with some good Canadian friends.

Cellar advent calendar day 5. This one held up better than the non-adjunct version, vanilla is still nice and prevalent

Very sweet and sticky. Boozy with a big bourbon character. The cocoa is mildly bitter and the vanilla is subtle as well. Still amazing

This has held up reasonably well. Chocolate vanilla and roast goodness. Glad this bottle held up. I think the rest of the release was sour lol
