Bottle picked up at Luvians St Andrews. It pours slightly hazy copperish - brown with a small fluffy white cap. The aroma is damp oak, leather, bitter - sweet, touch of umami, liquorice, slightly medicinal, touch of ketchup, savoury whisky, tangy berry, bramble and raspberry. The taste is sour and puckering upfront, tart, damp oak, firmly dry, musty, earthy, dull medicinal vibes, crunchy granny smith apple, gooseberry, dried berry, touch of tannin, tangfastics, liquorice, savoury, salty whisky and a touch of leather..finish is firm and dry. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Nice depth
and quite a unique flavour profile. Interesting and novel.

330ml bottle. Pours jet black with a thin head. Aroma is oily liquorice and tart with a little alcohol. Taste is sweet oily to start, with more oily roast and liquorice on the finish. A little dark chocolate on the aftertaste.
