Nose

Very intense and hot without water, quite oaky. Sharpened pencils and orchard fruits. Water brings a sauna-like piney oiliness. Clean, citric.

Palate

Softer and more zesty than you'd expect, though it carries the heat of high alcohol all the way. A fiery beast.

Finish

Becomes perfumed in the drying glass.
