Tasting in Blåvand mit der Legende! Toller Rum, sehr warm und intensiv mit Aromen von Rosinen, Pflaume und Gewürzen. Erinnert mich an eine Weihnachts-Abfüllung eines Whiskys, mit 68% ordentlich Bums aber ohne die Schärfe, sehr gut eingebunden und ausgebaut! Danke @kevin für das Sample!
Brought down by a sharp mouthfeel and more than few off notes (metallic, industrial)
