Tasting Notes

Nose

More wood oils and a general aroma reminiscent of a cooperage:sawdust, oil,grease,woodsmoke. Decent age on this. Cedar,incense with vestiges of smoke and herbs. Pagan

Palate

Smoke surrounded by acacia-like woodiness. Quite firm but enough rich sweetness to hold the wood in\rbalance. Layered black and semi dried fruits. Thick with an animalic edge to it. Better with water

Finish

Brazil nut
