Hong Kong storage be like AH HERD YOU LIKE BASEMENT SMAK SMAK SMAK SMAK SMAK.
I don’t mind basement, to be honest. I don’t crave it, but I do find it interesting, as it always seems to yield to something curious and a little unpredictable. Here it becomes camphor, deep huigan, some flowers overwintering in the fruit cellar, and dancing astringency. Some cha qi is present, though I’m a bit scattered tonight and not as focused on it as I’d like to be.
Just a little wood, curiously, and no alcohol notes from this barrel-aged beaut. It’s completely satisfying as is… though if I imagine wood resin and booze layered in, my brain does a dreamy drool.
Flavors: Astringent, Camphor, Flowers, Wet Rocks, Wet Wood
