Tasting Notes
Robert Karlsson	Sourly style. Some vinegar chips? Canned cucumber? Hmm... the sourly style is not as dominant in the taste but still there. Feels rough and not really done. Still it has qualities in its harshness.
Rich Howard	the nose offers sweet malt, fresh vanilla, even a hint of marshmallows, and canned peaches. water sweetens up the nose nicely with plenty of fresh berries, maybe just a touch of honey, and even some fennel or aniseed. the palate follows suit, with a light sweetness offset by more herbal notes. conclusion: a fairly tasty dram, and quite nice with just a drop of water.
