Tasting notes
The strong wood spice the cask sample displayed has receded to the background with round, rich, powerful flavors that are delicious but the wood acts to round them off. In short, this is perfectly pleasant and to be sure, the power and complexity are appealing but the absence of definition prevents this from ascending to the next level.

Cask sample Very explosive and attention-grabbing. Big and broad and good acidity. Nice package. (JR)
