77
- Nose
- Peculiar. Damp horse blankets, wet wood, light smoke, slightly fungal.
- Palate
- Better than the nose with light grip. Sandalwood, old apples and tobacco, malt extract. Then it becomes light and fragrant before the darkness of the woods creeps back in.
- Finish
- Lit cigar.
- Comment
- It's a cad pursuing an innocent girl. The big bad wolf after little Red Riding Hood.
80
- Nose
- Woody. Fresh pine sawdust. Spirity with a faint cheesy note. Goat cheese in olive oil and thyme. Wet dog.
- Palate
- Sweet and oaky. Quite tangy. Chilli and the bitter taste of pepper.
- Finish
- Dry, bitter, warm.
- Comment
- Wood, wood, wood… And this cheesy note does not improve the aromatic profile. Water enhances the bitterness.
