Tasting Notes |
Oliver Klimek | Colour: Dark amber -
Nose: A breath of sea air, dead campfire, a little rubber and hints of nutmeg. -
Palate: Peat, liquorice, toasted bread, pepper and mixed dried herbs. -
Finish: Very long, dry and smoky. -
Overall: This special bottling is not quite as peppery as the regular 10 yo but it displays very interesting toasted and herbal notes. |
