Tasting Notes
Robert KarlssonCrisp smokyness. Alcohol, white pepperyish (is that a word?). Some young notes in there. Dominated by a slightly odd taste. Apart from that, smoke, round butteryness and some vanilla, and smoke ofcourse. The odd taste lowers the score. // Tried this several times after this and the odd note cannot be found again.
