Nose: Matured Pecorino cheese, wet leather, dried hay
Palate: Very gamey, lactic acidity, green peppers, agave only very subdued.
Watery mouthfeel. Low ABV (40.5%) certainly does not help. I wished the cupreata flavour came through less subtle. Overall, an odd one for me available a great price, however.

Very light hint of smoke on the nose, herbal and vegetal aromas of cut grass and boiled artichoke. Well rounded, with a bit viscosity. Tastes like a caramel/toffee with mint oil, white asparagus, green bell peppers or perhaps fresh poblano. Flavours are really nice; although it lacks a bit of structure I’ll give one extra star for value. It is among the cheapest out there and would be a very nice introduction to cupreata. Very available in northern Europe it seems, but hard to find any info about the producer. Lot MTLT01.
