Can at home, 29th November 24. Pours thick and black. Aroma is peaty, barrel, light vineous, chocolate and liquor. Taste is full on, slick, chocolate and barrel, liquor, lots of well integrated Scottish peaty whisky, wood. Fantastic, reminds me of me old favourites from De Molen, years ago

Can split at L6 Tasting, picked up from HOTM online, 22/03/23. Black with a khaki cap that thins to the edge. Nose is chocolate, dark malts, spice, molasses, toffee. Taste comprises chocolate, roast malts, spice, mellow barrel, light smoke, dark fruit rinds, charr. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced rising boost. Not bad but needs more barrel.

Wood cask at Generation Craft 2024. Very woody. Dark chocolate espresso coffee oily. Too much wood. That is revolting.
