15.01.2025, 0,375l bottle (2017 vintage) @ hotel room in Sandane:
Nice bubbly-creamy shortlasting head. Aroma is slightly dry sour-ish roasted, cough syrup, oak, peat, leather, booze, old rope, bark, minerals, toast, soil, dark malts, licorice. Taste is slightly dry sour-ish peated, oak, booze, peat, dark malts, cough syrup, old rope, leather, minerals, licorice, soil, toast. Medium bitterness, slightly harsh sour-ish peated mouthfeel. Fair enough.

Bottle thanks to Ian. Pours a dark amber with small tan head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is strong smoke, peat, wood, bourbon. Slick body, strong peat, oak, bourbon, dry finish, very good.
