Hitachino Nest – Espresso stout

Hitachino Nest Espresso Stout is a bold and refined Japanese craft beer brewed by Kiuchi Brewery. Inspired by a Russian Imperial Stout base and infused with roasted espresso beans, it delivers a rich and complex coffee-forward profile. 

Deep black in color, it offers intense aromas of coffee, dark chocolate and roasted malt, layered with notes of caramel, vanilla and dark fruit. The palate is smooth and full-bodied, with a pronounced espresso bitterness balanced by subtle sweetness, finishing dry, roasted and lingering. With an ABV around 7–7.5%, it is robust yet elegant.
