In the aroma, the sweet tones of pastry, cookies and caramel dominate completely and did not prepare me at all for the flavor profile. On the palate, there are intense peppery notes, baked fruit and hints of floral tones. Alcohol is present and the finish is longer, pleasant.

6.1/10

Incredibly strange drinking experience. It's like mixing bitter, spicy resin, toasted wood chips, freshly ground pepper and brine. The virgin oak is really very present here and the alcohol is anything but well integrated.... PLV is rather bad than good here.

Expert review by Zucker und Zeste

Very mature and dark for the relatively short time in a Virgin Oak barrel made from Czech oak. Spicy, slightly floral and also fruity. There is criticism for the alcohol content.
