Vanilla hits up strongly with nice cocoa, rich coffee-roastiness also comes up nicely here. Very interesting mix of vanilla and cocoa with roastiness. Medium bodied, very smooth palated. Flavor is similar with vanilla and cocoa in start, some fruits come up too. Aftertaste lasts with roastiness, convenient bitterness, thin vanilla also here.
