give our pipette a rest. Colour: white wine. Nose: immaculate, on seawater, olive brine, and diesel oil. Do you really need more litterature? Of course you don’t, let’s move on… Mouth: classic fresh un-fiddled-with Port Mourant, but with something extra. We’re virtually having oysters with some olive oil, lemon juice, liquid tar, tabasco, and a good glass of bone-dry chenin from the Loire Valley. It’s getting drier and drier over time – but time is short since you cannot not down this at a good speed. Finish: long and lime-y. Green pepper in the aftertaste. Comments: unquestionably one of the greatest distillates out there. Why don’t DDL rather issue this kind of un-stuffy expression? I know, because only die-hard spirit freaks like this style. Fair enough.
