Tasting Notes
Robert KarlssonInitially a bit on sulphur and "slimey" maltyness. Then wood and some raisins. The initial impression dominates however. Not much sulphur here. Some obvious rather harsh woodyness in there though. Mouth-coating on malty sweetness and raisin. But it's rather harsh all the way. The oozing nose lowers this one for me.
