Tasting Notes |
Oliver Klimek | Nose: Very intense, maritime smokiness meets dried fruit -
Palate: Peaty and spicy, but also with notes of raisins and dark chocolate -
Finish: Long, dry smoke, slightly sweet -
Overall: The old version has much more sherry influence than its modern brother. I wouldn't say it's better, but it is intriguingly different. |
