Smoked Baltic Porter aged for 20 months in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels.

Wędzony Imperialny Porter Bałtycki leżakowany przez 20 miesięcy w beczkach po bourbonie Heaven Hill. Aromat oferuje idealny balans pomiędzy charakterystyczną wędzonką pochodzącą od słodów, a nutami czekolady i pumperniklu kojarzącymi się z klasycznym Porterem Bałtyckim. Całość dopełniają delikatne nuty wanilii i kawy pochodzące z beczek po bourbonie.

Black color with close to no beige head. Aroma: quite a lot of bourbon influence - vanilla, fudge, toffee, treacle, licorice, cinnamon. Taste: oily, rich, vanilla, beechwood smoke, toffee, treacle, cinnamon, licorice leasing to gentle smoky aftertaste. Full bodied, low carbonation. Winter sipper, a dessert

30/11/2024. Bottle shared at Ulfborg tasting. Pours very dark purple black with a small frothy tan coloured head. Aroma is woody, smoked, dark malts, chocolate, berries, dark fruits, truffle, bonfire, dark chocolate mousse, bounty bar. Quite sweet with moderate bitterness. Full bodied, smooth and slick, low carbonation. Smoke didn't dominate too much which I liked, very well done.
