Tasting Notes:

Very high ester count here, <>H meaning around 1,000 g/hlpa and medium amounts of cane juice vinegar. Colour: gold. Nose: greatest of news, your brand new Pirellis have arrived! ß- this and only this. With water: all kinds of glues, Pattex, UHU, Loctite and compadres. Benzine. Mouth (neat): utter love for this. Dazzling mentholated caraway, loads of rubber and liquorice, some tarragon, salt, carbolineum, things reminiscent of 'that abandoned old petrol station', white balsamico (our Italian friends say that's not proper balsamico)… With water: we tamed it. It loves water. Seawater and drain oil. Finish: very long. Dazzling salted liquorice. Comments: I don't think there's much you can do against these 'chemical monsters' that are so close, in spirit, to the early Ardbegs. I mean, stuffs that we were not really supposed to drink in their unblended forms. Aren't we real rebels?

Note:SGP:464 - 91 points.
