Tasting Notes
Robert Karlsson	Obvious smokiness, a bit rude and edgy at first sighting. Some raisin thrown in. Definitely needs time. Round tasty very spice malty sweetness intermingled with an attractive smokiness. Really tasty and powerful.
Craig Daniels	Nose: Fresher and fruitier than I was expecting, still has the leather and smoked fruit. Palate; sweet and smokey, leather and a little bit of tar. Finish: long, warm and smoky, then the tar and leather kick in. A bit sweeter and a bit more livley than other recent releases.
