#4561 19.01.2024 Got a set of samples from a former colleague in Sweden and today I'll give them a go. My tastebuds are still hyper sensitive, which can be both good and bad. Pretty good Grand Arôme with nice fruits and light esters on the nose alongside faint glue notes. The palate is well rounded, spicy and has nice berry and tomato notes. The finish is medium to long and oily with light herbs and medicinal notes. The empty glass has light chocolate and strawberry notes as well as faint smoke.
Das hier ist ein sehr interessantes Profil. Etwas Frucht ist da, aber es überwiegen die herzhaften, pflanzlichen Noten, wie Olive, Gurke, Gras. Dazu auch etwas erdiges, vergorenes, Klebstoff. Leider nur 2cl abbekommen, würde mich ansonsten interessieren wie er sich in Cocktails macht.
New Year's resolution: open rums from the cabinet gradually taste and evaluate again. Here is one of my absolute favorite unaged. Beautiful medicinal, smoky
herbe Kräuter, starke medizinische Noten ( Jod), Gurke, Olive, aber auch fruchtige Noten (teils vergoren, teils künstlich). Sehr langer herber Abgang. Alkohol ist ordentlich eingebunden. Ist auf jeden Fall eine interessante Abfüllung
