Tasting Notes | |
Oliver Klimek | Color: Gold - Nose: Smoked ham, sea shore, mild citrus fruit, a touch of honey. - Palate: Peat, honey, lime, grapefruit, cinnamon and just a little chili catch. - Finish: Long, smoky and sweet - Overall: The nose is terrific, but on the palate the sweetness is a little too much for my taste. But that's just complaining on a very high level. It still is a damn fine malt. |
