Right, this one's proper punchy - very spirity when you first have it, like proper high-strength stuff that makes you sit up straight. There's a lovely grainy character to it, almost like raw cereal, and underneath that I'm getting this grassy, herbal thing... thyme maybe? Reminds me a bit of newly mown meadow. The mineral side is strong too - definitely got that limestone, chalky thing going on. And then there's a curious coffee note that creeps in alongside something buttery that smooths it all out. Oh, and I swear I'm picking up something like wild carrots and a hint of white wine? Quite unusual but really enjoyable 😊

这酒劲儿挺冲的，但不算呛人，像一拳打在棉花上。有股子百里香混着石头的味道，让我想起雨后在老石墙边上散步。黄油般的口感滑过去，后面泛起一点咖啡和青草的涩。 说它像酒吧，又有点白葡萄酒那种清冽感…奇怪，第一反应居然不是威士忌 🤔

Right, so this one's quite interesting... not getting much wood at all, which is a bit different. The nose is giving me sunny afternoon vibes - fresh cut grass, a bit of wild herbs like rosemary and thyme. There's something almost like a dry white wine in there too, quite crisp and clean 🌿 On the palate, I'm picking up that grassy note again, kind of like chewing on fresh blades of grass on a summer day. And then there's this weird carrot thing? Like fresh garden carrots, not the boiled ones your nan used to make you eat haha 🥕 The finish brings out a bit of coffee, which I wasn't really expecting. Quite a pleasant surprise actually. Overall it's quite fresh and herby, something I'd maybe reach for on a sunny afternoon with the windows open. Rather nice!

Honestly, the first thing that hits me is this sharp, white wine-like acidity, very spirity indeed. 😄 It’s like getting a whiff of dry limestone and fresh herbs—thyme and rosemary, maybe? Almost like crushing them between your fingers. Then there’s this green note, like newly mown grass after summer rain. And right at the back, a subtle coffeeish bitterness sneaks in, grounding it all. Pleasantly complex, really makes you sit up and pay attention. 🍷

Warm and cosy, with a bit of sweet malt and soft spice. Feels like a quiet evening by the fire 🥃 A little fruity, a little oaky, nicely mellow. Not too fussy, just easy to enjoy.
