The nose opens with carbolic and coal tar soap, road tar and soot, with Brazil nuts, pine nuts and a garden shed behind them. The palate is very sweet, salty and smoky, recalling smoked hot dog with barbecue sauce, then oysters with clamato sauce. Water brings out medicinal notes and makes it a little less sweet and salty, with plenty of sooty smoke remaining.
