You ever have a blind sample, guess it’s one thing…but turns out something you so didn’t expect? Like back in grad school. You’re in a relationship with a woman, who’s a straight A student, North Indian -American middle class family…yet somehow has a lot cash to spend on things we normal grad school students simply can’t ? She has no problem forking $300 for a Coach purse and a $2000 Omega watch, when I can barely afford groceries at Meyer’s. Your perception is rich parents. But…you’ve met her parents, seen her home.,,they don’t seem rich. Maybe they live middle class, but are cash rich? Noooooo…turns out she’s a stripper 50 miles away in Indianapolis, making thousands a week. Tax free. Yeah…perception was one thing, reality is something else. That leads us to tonight’s sample… This was one of the 4 samples we tried this evening during an online tasting ( we as in @Richard-ModernDrinking , @ctbeck11 and @pkingmartin ). It was a blind sample I sent over. Of course , for me, it wasn’t blind…that would be simply idiotic. But I was expecting this to be similar to the other Spots…a bit fruity and light. But no, instead, was more like a Highlander. Robust, meaty, full bodied …meaty, almost oily. I added a few drops of water, seems to have helped. It’s good…probably the best of the Spot series. But, there’s really no reason for the outrageous prices, or the slim availability. $100-110 is a fair price…above that, it’s just price gauge.
