| Tasting Notes |
| Robert Karlsson | Spiced-up mandarins and drier cinnamon. Wood influence. And darker smoke. Tastewise not strong and the smoke arrives in force not immediately but after a short while. Quite dominant on the smoke, with toffeeish aftertaste. |
| Craig Daniels | Nose: Smoke and sherry, smoked rosewater.
Palate: sweet and smoky, fruity, sour cherries then rubber.
Finish: smoked fruit, raspberries, ashes and roses.
Comment: Not the best DE, but still pretty damn fine. |
