House Review
Nose:
Funky and full of red berries, red vine licorice candies, canned cranberry sauce, cherry cordials and a juicy blackberry note.
Taste:
Thin to medium on the palate, a bit of char, pepper and a touch of clove. Packed with berries and fruit, cherry cordials, raspberries, more red vine licorice and strawberry syrup. Not quite natural but also not quite artificial.
Finish:
Short finish, jammy and bright and heavy on the molasses and pepper.
Overall:
You have to love jammy fruits to love this Don Q expression, and while it’s a touch fruity for my tastes, it’s a unique look from Don Q.
