Saw the previous comments about some of the shall we say, olfactory challenges presented by this vintage. I thought, these guys are spammers, trolls and ne'er do wells - no way it smells like that! Well, spank my ass and call me corrected- they are right! Port a potty? Yep. Bottom of trash can in summer? Uh huh. A collection of towels at the over 60 YMCA? Quite possibly! Yet somehow, someway against every fiber of my palate l drank. And again. And again! Maybe morbid curiosity, maybe not feeling guilty as it was a gift but honestly it's actually not bad! Earthy for sure, but with some bright crushed fruit flavors tempered by that reviling yet intoxicating dank! Not sure u could sanely recommend and would certainly not gift. But in a world of predictable sameness you may just want to take a run at this one! — 10 years ago
