Notes & Reviews

posted 11 May. 2013

Tasting Notes by SCOMA :

Aroma: Roasted coffee beans, which were dried in a sherry cask Glenfarclas.

Taste: Very bitter, would fit well to a double espresso.

Finish: Big finish, but which rapidly decays.

Tasting notes by the producer (George S. Grant):

A beautiful old oak cask in colour.

Roasted coffee beans that have been dried in a Glenfarclas sherry hogshead.

Very bitter would go well with a double espresso coffee. 98% cocoa bean chocolate.

A big finish but quickly peters out, leaving you wanting more.
Bottled 2010.
