Description

The darkest candi syrup made, a third darker again than D-180: dark raisin, prune, date and roasted caramel, with enough color that two or three percent of the grist shows in the glass. Still fully fermentable despite the intensity, so it deepens a quadrupel or a Belgian dark strong without leaving sweetness behind. About a quarter water, so near 34 points per pound.
