Nose is pretty wild and disjointed; cotton candy, berry, bubblegum, apricot, and spoiled honey. Ethanol is mild, but noticeable. Palate also features some bizarre notes of coriander, cardamom, old leather, and apricot rind. Everything here is either herbal or bitter and the net result is a very unbalanced dram. Finish is long and features peppermint, bitter astringent wood, and white pepper. No relief here as this carries the assault from the palate forward. Mouthfeel brings tongue peeling harshness. There is no other way to say it; this is awful. Paid $68 for this and that price is probably the only thing that prevents this from being a drain pour. No scratch that, I’m drain pouring it.
