Heavy. This one is strong.
Bottled at 60% abv! That is right, with an Old Oak dark color.
On the nose the alcohol mark doesn't feel as a 60% abv, but it does make your nose tingle a little bit. The aroma has plum, new recently cut wood, almonds, lime and earth (like dirt) notes.
On the palate is A SPICE NUCLEAR BOMB. Black Pepper, Red hot chilli peppers, wasabi and hints of oak. The body is medium and the aftertaste is also very spicy, with a little hotness. Is not unpleasant but definitively harsh because of the thrusting spicyness.
Overall i can catalogue this one as an experience that you should have at least once. Very powerful. 59 out of 100.
