Wow, don’t let that smell fool you, it is delicious. It smells like old feet, but the flavor is an instant assault of cool honey and berries. The longer you hold it in your mouth, you can focus more on the individual ingredients, making it a complex Rubik’s Cube of flavor. It’s think and heavy, you don’t need more than one glass
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Warm golden, clear and flat. Bright, pure, sweet nose with loads of honey character but also figs, grapes, and dates. Inviting aroma. Viscous, thick, and slippery. Apple and honey to the max in the flavors. Simple, sweet but nice, juicy and eminantly sippable.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Golden. Still, with a slight haze. Rich sugary orangey nose with a slightly floral accent. Very honeyish. Slight acidity and orange zest accent. Soft, but kind of cloying.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Deep amber in color. Aroma is a strong molasses with a tartness to it. Alcohol is apparent. Taste is very sweet and syrupy. Thick mouthfeel. Mostly molasses and honey with a hint of green apples. I like it, but prefer Kasztelanski.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle, thanks to Papsoe for this one. Nose is pungent, alcohol, honey, kerosene, garage. Mouth is silky, sugary, some spirit and calvados. Quite good, really.
