Description

A distillery located in the Park Royal area of north-west London, England. Opened in 2016, Bimber operates a 'farm-to-bottle' approach, sourcing 100% of its barley from a single producer and using traditional floor maltings and slow fermentation techniques. This particular release, 'Albert the Physicist', is part of the 'Shoulders of Giants' series, celebrating Albert Einstein. It was matured in a single Tawny Port cask and bottled in 2024 as a Germany exclusive.

Nose
This shows nice hints of polished floors, aromatic plums and cherry jam. Hints of raspberry ganache. At some point this gave me Kavalan vibes. Then mossy notes, some black tea and tobacco. Then some clove and cinnamon as well.
Palate
It becomes quite extractive now, with bitter notes and plain wood.
Finish
Medium long, with cocoa, some wood tannins and tobacco.
