Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

Bursting aromatics of umami notes like woodear mushroom, overripe pineapple, and dusty earth lead into a rich and powerful spirit of green grape and melon fruit with more dried porcini, light soy sauce, and a long, spicy finish with a bit of Sichuan peppercorn heat.
