Member Ratings and Notes
Andy
 

n:  Fresh cut wood dipped in tar.  Smoked meats.

 

p:  Thin on mouthfeel but overwhelming with flavor.  Hickory smoke seasoning.  Fresh layed asphalt and a bit of balsalmic vinegar.  The finish is incredibly long and possibly permanent, leaning towards wood finish and heavily smoked beef jerky.

 

Best Cairdeas (I've tried) yet. 

Fuji
 

N: Damp peat moss, lemon zest, uodine, salt, band aids and campfire smoke.

P: Oily mouthfeel with sweet peat and some spice. Rubber, tar and asphalt.

F: Orange peel and ash

Sku
 

Nose: Peat and a slight fruitiness
