Sunday, July 31, 2022 - Speakeasy /w FermentedBeast & Co. (Diamond Heights, San Francisco): Gorgeous forest notes of dark green oak, bark and twigs, fragrant flowers, spiced flowers, dark red currants, and minerals. Loved the forest nose on this, smelled like you were practically walking through a thick and pristine forest.
Flavors of rich red and black fruits, deep earth but not heavy, similar wild forest trees from the nose, and deep tree roots in the earth. With time, the intensity of fruits pick up some and the addition of dark graphite appears on the palate.
This was a very nice treat, loved the forest-y nose on this. Palate is what you kinda expect from Carter but there's still some flare to keep this interesting. This was slow-ox'd for 3 hours prior to serving. 95-96
