Top Notes For

6.1

Strong alcohol taste. Smells sweet, tastes more bitter. It's got decent legs. Can't really pin point any kind of flavors or notes because of how strong and bitter it is. I can't say spicy, or citrusy, or anything because it's so strong.

It was initially smoother after decanting. But still just burns up the back of your throat to your sinuses.

Sweeter but not sweet. Ever so slightly effervescent. Undertones of leather and sweet blackberry.

2015 vintage. No real smoothness and can really taste the alcohol in it. Wouldn’t buy again.
