Member Ratings and Notes

The nose is sweet and floral, light and perfumed. The flavor is medicinal, soapy, a bit of a chemical taste. If I really concentrate, I get some fruit, maybe apple cider, and some herbal notes, but I keep coming back to soap which lasts into the finish.

N: Very light, white wine, with a bit of Vicks Vapo-rub.  Faint evergreen.
P: The palate is generically sweet, and that's about it...
F: Some of the evergreen on the nose comes through.
Besides it being rather plain and weak, this is very drinkable.  If it didn't have that evergreen note it'd be a total bust, but I kind of like that aspect.  Cask strength, this might be interesting stuff.

Uh-oh. Yuck. Seriously soapy. In the background, something like apples and vanilla, but I'm not interested in exploring it. I don't like this at all, it's pretty unpalatable.

 

(See Talkback below as well).
