Tasting Notes |
Robert Karlsson | Very obvious slightly aciduous raisin. Thin, weakish. After a while the nose gets more on cooked vegetables and hay. Perhaps some cinnaman and OBE? But still, it's thin. Tastewise slightly gunpowdery weakish raisin and the cooked style appears also here. Distinctly malty.. improves with time when I deceive myself to detect some of the OBE-notes that I pretend I fancy :). But it's too weak to get anywhere.. |
