    Any idea what the cassanade is? Some sort of sugar?

    From what I can tell it is a brown sugar but I'm not sure it exactly like the brown sugar we know in the states which consists basically of sucrose and molasses.

    I came across your blog. I have three 2007 unopened collector bottles of Mikkeller Black that I am looking to sell. If you are interested, then please let me know.
