2019 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

TTL Yushan Yuan Jiao 8 Years Old Kaoliang Liquor (Taiwan), 52% abv, n/a, 700 ml

87
Very Good,
Strong Recommendation

Tasting Note:

Airy mountain wildflower, lemon curd, soy sauce, pumpkin seed, and rice cake are dominant on the nose of this complex spirit. Musky tropical fruit and powerful anise come forward on the palate, with hints of bone broth and an almost tannic structure. Long and elegant.
