Extra Dark Crystal

Extra Dark Crystal

(400 IOB / 200 ASBC)

A highly unique crystal malt, crafted to perfection to deliver great depth of colour and flavour intensity. 

Rich black treacle notes dominate at the front of the palate, working in harmony with the classical sweet crystal malt notes of muscovado and caramelised sugar, rich syrups and freshly roasted coffee.

A fine bitterness lingers on the palate combining with bold pruneraisin and date fruitiness.
