• Smell reminds me of hay, of herbs with a slight floral side, a hint of citrus and cat piss
• Soft start, then explodes in mouth with a quite long finish
• Start is more mineral, slightly sweeter than Cloudy Bay, explosion is citrusy
• Very complex and interesting, balanced
• Slight taste of butter and almonds, especially in aftertaste, very subtle, more of a feeling
• Start is more soft and smooth than Cloudy Bay, comparable quality maybe a tad less pleasant
