Ive Just been drinking this after the 2014 Thurbo, which has some really serious flavour & decent thick aroma, it didnt really stand a chance.
This doesnt have the same body, its lighter and thinner, more flowing. Deeper muscatel aroma (for a FF) but also woody and not as fruity, syrupy or floral tasting as I like.
Reminded me of Roobois a bit, end result was me trying to push the flavour, which is a recipe for disaster. When the astringency comes out the sweetness is still delicate, so there is no counterbalance & the sour just took over a bit too much.
Possibly nice if brewed for a delicate cup before bringing out something with punch.

Might be a year old took its toll. I like FF Goomtee, but when new.
Yeah not sure – it was a darker colour, I dont know if thats relevant.
