2021 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Yushan Chiew (58 Gold) Kaoliang Liquor (Taiwan), 58% abv, NT$n/a, 600 ml

95
Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

Explosive and funky on the nose with notes of wild asparagus, mocha, water chestnut, garlic, creamed corn, and preserved lemon. The palate steers mineral, salty, and nutty, with papaya and white pepper taking up the charge into a long, fruity, and dry finish.
