Birramisu BA 2022

The Marsala and Jamaican rum barrels come through so distinctly—it’s like sipping a dessert that’s had a wild night out. Poured it over a big ice cube after dinner and the layers just kept unfolding. This one’s worth every penny for a slow evening.

The 15-month barrel aging really shows—the Marsala and Jamaican Rum notes come through in layers without being boozy. I poured a glass after dinner and the tiramisu sweetness balanced the dark stout perfectly. This one’s worth cellaring if you can resist opening it.

I brought this to a slow evening with friends and we passed the bottle around, all four of us taking our time with it. The 15 months in those barrels really shows—there's a warm rum and rye depth that lingers long after each sip, with the tiramisu sweetness keeping it dangerously smooth.
