Tasting Notes

Colour

pale white wine

air Nose

another one that feels extremely young, but what saves it is the fact that it’s very olive-y and gherkiny, if I may. Almond oil, brine, sour apple juice, whelks (why whelks, S.?) With water: a large cardboard box full of unused bicycle inner tubes

restaurant Palate

hot and limy. Sounds like a disco song circa 1976, doesn’t it? Burns your throat, actually. With water: we tamed it, congrats! Ashy lemons and smoked shellfish

timer Finish

long and smoky/rubbery
