“Lots of brine here, some shoemaker's glue and rubber. Didn't impress me but it's a drink to try. Bacon and barbecue sauce in the empty glass”

“Mit dem Clairin Le Rocher kann ich leider gar nix anfangen. Salzig, sehr rauchig, Speck, Olive und ein bisschen erdig. allein die extreme Rauchnote ist absolut nicht meins . Vielleicht was für Fans von rauchigen Barbecuesoßen.”
