    Teil 5/8 unseres 1986er Rockley Tastings: Fassstärke Baby!🤤🇧🇧🍯 blind wäre ich bei Port Mourant ähnlich Banks coinnasseurs Cut. geschmacklich granny smith Äpfel, Salzkaramell, jod, Wacholder, Erdnussbutter und Honig. starke Nummer, mir persönlich aber zu heavy und der Alkohol nicht gut eingebunden genug.

    This one was like a hammer when it comes to flavour and I had to add a bit of water to release alle the flavours. Not that it's needed, but it will give you a wider spectrum of flavours. The nose is fruity with smoke, herbs, vanilla and waxes. Without water it will bite your nose a bit. The palate has some sweetness to it with fruits, vanilla, nuts, caramel and honey. I also get wax and a medicinal note that reminds me of iodine. The finish is long and warm with vanilla and herbal notes and again the same medicinal note. Again it doesn't really need water, but it does release more flavours.
