Bottle from Bon Vivant companion. Appearance - opaque black with a lovely fawn head. Nose - smoke, whisky and wood. Taste - whisky, smoke, toffee with a light wood backdrop. Palate - medium to full bodied with a creamy and smoky mid section and a long dry smoky finish. The smoke dominates the beer too much. Overall - the original black cork is a stunning beer. This takes away from that.MMaybe use a non peat whisky would be better.

Bottle from Provenance Wines. Black body with a thick beige head. Light lacing. Aroma of dark chocolate, prunes and whisky hints. Flavour of wood, raisin and a light whisky burn. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. The whisky is nicely integrated but I prefer the uncasked Black Cork.

330ml bottle from Provenance Wines, Tollcross, Edinburgh. Pours black, long-lasting off-white head. Aromas of liquorice, whisky, booze, wood. Taste is far to woody for me, chewy, woody. Black cork is a great beer, which has been lost in the barrel.
