14.09.2019 Super Kill Devil tasting at a local shop, that unfortunately is no more. Notes Very dark in colour. Nose Light wood, sweet, raisin, licorice, plum, berries, light nutts. Palate Round, oily, wood, faint smoke, dried fruit, earthy, licorice, medium spicy, faint rubber, faint chocolate. Finish Long and warm, oily, wood, licorice, raisin, faint smoke, faint chocolate. Extra note Need to rest for a good while.
