Tasting Notes:

“Colour: gold. Nose: some action here, this is completely different, sour, acetic, with some cheese, porridge, sour wines, something clearly bacterial. No muck or dunder though, this is more akin to rotting strawberries. Not obligatorily bad news, mind you, let's see… With water: even more of all that. Fondue with mushrooms, weissbeer, a drop of miso... Mouth (neat): so clearly different! Pure pot still Foursquare, perhaps? It is much greasier, phenolic, salty, fermentary, and indeed on Swiss cheese. I'm thinking appenzeller, or perhaps gorgonzola. With water: seems to find the road, with more sultanas, Muscovado sugar, molasses, milk chocolate, maple syrup… Finish: rather long, this time with some coffee liqueur and drops of crazier white rum. Comments: was it the spirit? Was it the cask? What's sure is that this is different and, in my book, excellent. We want more.”

Note: 89 points
