  • Nose:

    Sweet, musty, tomatoes, overripe fruits. Really really really sweet in a rotting fruit way without that big ester punch. Really weird. Light vinegar.

  • Taste:

    Thin to medium. Really strange. Sweet and earthy, musty and funky. VInegar, tomatoes, banana, odd oerfume note I cant put my finger on.

  • Finish:

    Short, sweet and funky. Oddly fruity again in a way I can't descripbe

  • Overall:

    This is super weird and interesting but it's not for me. It's so sweet and pungent in a non estery way that leaves me with the strangest impression.
