Tasting Notes by Malt And Oak

Appearance: Dark Amber. Slow thin legs

Nose: Quite spirity. Sweet candy, baked apples, unripened banana, rhubarb tartness, raspberry yoghurt.

Palate: Lot’s of sweetness and a chilli-tingle. The heat from the alcohol is prodding the tongue, roof of the mouth and then jumping on the back of tongue for good measure. Lot’s of wooden oaky bitterness, but then the heat re-appears.

Finish: Medium-long. Sweet and bitter.  Slightly too woody for me and it just seems to dominate the overall character.

Water adds: More fruit & caramel on the nose, and spiced sweetness on the tongue.
