Parmenion777 (1288) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - DEC 29, 2018UPDATED: DEC 29, 2018 330ml bottle - Pours a hazy brown-red colour with a small beige head.

ALLOVATE (3645) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - NOV 20, 2018Into a tulip, just on chilled. Ruddy chestnut body and hazy. Nose has no yuzu but is heavily fuelled with bitter grapefruit, stewed and caramelised orange and rhubarb, camphor, menthol and a strong, penetrating whiff of bruised Vietnamese mint. On thee palate it is sharp, bitter and almost acridly so. Yuzu, under its many other names, is a sour but very fruity hit of citrus, this harboured little but it was evident. Came across as just a tang of lemon juice amongst nutty, tannic malts and woody notes. Dry finish and palate wrecking linger of parching dryness. Nutty, woody malts last similarly long. Not bad given it is an aged sample. Quite sessionable at its ABV. Weird but good! (33cL, BB 04/10/18, The Liquor Shed, Jandakot)
