Nose: Very like vodka, slight vanilla but with little nuance. Not a very interesting nose.
Palate: Mild vanilla and light herbal/woody notes but nothing particularly noteworthy. The texture is neutral.
Finish: Short. The simple sweetness of alcohol, but to be fair there were no harsh or metallic notes.
Following my recent review of Katsaros tsipouro (which was pretty good and I suspect one of the better spirits of this type) I thought I should try a cheaper brand to gain context. This pour did provide that experience and proved that all tsipouro is not created equal.
The better brands are comparable to a good eau-de-vie, but this is a rougher spirit intended for mixing or doing shots. I was not particularly impressed.
“Adequate” : 70/100 (2 stars)
