Somewhat medicinal initial impression, sawdust, brandy bean, and the first sip seems to disappear. Then I gave it some time: a positive change occurred. With plenty of air and rest, it became noticeably sweeter on the nose, a grassy note, a little more wood.

With a few drops of water, I had Juicy Fruit on the nose, a little malt. Now tastes sweeter, with an herbal note that I cannot name.

The fact is: the somewhat unspectacular start transforms into an exciting finish - you just need a little patience, give it time, and possibly add a few drops of water.
