12.11.2005 The Den, Beijing This was my first tasting in China, where I lived for a little over 7 years. This was my contribution to the tasting. A bottle i had brought (smuggled) in my shipment of personal items when moving from Sweden to Shanghai. My notes. Very dark in colour. Woody with some licorice, plum and dried fruit. Palate is oily and medicinal with wood, spice and dried fruit. Medium finish with dried fruit, wood and anise.
An old Demerara that really suffered from the dilution. The nose is a melange of applebrandy, tropical fruit, Apfelkraut and jung wood. In the Palate you again get the Apfelkraut, burned sugar, and some savoury nots like Celerysalt or lovage with a lot of rum raisin goodnes. It finishes with spice and warm woody flavours. a light, crisp woodyness taht ha a certain dryness. And the bitterness like Aqua-Faba has. Brilliant profile just limited by the 45%. Shame!
