| Tasting Notes |
| Robert Karlsson | Distinct smokiness, with hints of a nicely berried vanilla. And tar. Salt licorice? Coastal I'd say. Nice powerful taste, all on the coastalness, smoke, leather, saltiness. Add some cured meat to that. The berried vanilla is not big in the taste at all. Good one here. |
