Nose

Light straw, hints of dehydrated pears, leading into marzipan and currants. Much less harshness on the nose then expected from the ABV.

Palate

Ester, turpentine. Quite creamy, with tones of pungent rubber with light tropical fruits shyly shining through.

Finish

Astringent and powerful with restrained vanilla and delicate honey mustard.

Comment

Difficult to get my head around, an enigma as to its position in the market. Even diluted, it’s hard to discern any identity.
