Terra Doss
3.8
Nose: Delicious smoky peat aroma. Reflecting its youth, the straightforward smokiness is almost enough to make you cough. There's also a chemical scent of sulfur and a smooth, pre-chew pungency like raw garlic. Palate: Initial immediate sweetness. The high proof is delightful on the palate, with a dominant refreshing sweetness from lemon peel. A hint of herbs and grass adds a pleasant bittersweet freshness. Finish: Like fast runners, many flavors and aromas disappear quickly, but not before leaving a smoky, sulfurous residue like a sandstorm. One-line review: Like an 18-year-old Olympic athlete, displaying perfect skill despite its youth.
