Tasting Notes |
Robert Karlsson | Immense peatiness here. And lots of alcohol I'd guess. Some pears, hints of butter. Thick, yet fresh. Albeit youngish feel. Might need some water I suspect. A bit harsh taste, on cartloads of peat and an oily malty sweetness. Some vanilla. A bit edgy, youngish, but nothing wrong anywhere I'd say. |
