97 reviewsApril 2022 46.9% sampled on 6/7/2024 100 liter 1 year 2 months in glass. Aromas out of the bottle or spicy jalapeno and light blue cheese little bit of smoke and a small amount of acetone. Flavors to follow with a lot of strong spicy alcohol in the finish this one’s a powerful burn hopefully it airs out some and becomes a little smoother. After the initial opening on the spot on it has aired out some it’s become smoother and softer but this one still is the most powerful and hard-hitting of the bunch. At the initial airing this one shows lots of smoke and leather it opens up with time and some of the heat goes away. this one just gets better with time!
