NØGNE Ø «Nordic Noir 3» (15%) 6/6

Been curious about this one for a good while, as it‘s been standing there, tempting… 

Now, poured in glass, it presents as dark brown beauty w/creamy petite head. Nose is elegant: Chocolate, fig and exotic spices.

Velevety texture, vineous with all the mentioned elements reminiscent in the taste as well. Maturity is perfect, the layers are pure sofistication. Sweet at first, hint of acidity before the subtle, balanced underlying heat sets in. The aftertaste lingers for a long while. I must say, these fine people have perfected the art that is Nordic Noir as well. Splendid.
