Member Ratings and Notes

Adam

Nose of turpentine, white wine, and floral aspects. The palate is an interesting medley of difficult-to-describe stuff -- it's big, round and somewhat tart. There's a green mulchiness, grainy components, oranges, and spice. And it's really oily and lubricating in the mouth. This all continues in the finish for a good length. I could write pages of notes on this and still not describe it right.

Chris

N: Interesting! Crazy fruit blend, Bubblicious gum, perfume violets, sage.
P: Really organic, minty, it tastes like a plant extract. Is this great or gross?
F: Oily and mouth coating.
This is totally in a space of it's own, I'm not sure how much I could drink, but ya gotta try it. [The grades I considered were A- and D. It's just so bizarre, you are gonna love it or hate it.]
