Clear 12oz bottle from 604 for like $8. Mojito glass at home. Opens with hardly a whimper. No carb but some forced activity on the pour. Peachy iced tea color with slight haze once the second pour stirs things up. Earthy, softly vinous nose, mellow wax with a little peanut-y oxidation. Taste is tangy & bittersweet, leaning off-dry to brut sour. Juicy sour cherry/dark berry fruit upfront, lingering pith, lemon, light wax & oxidation on middle to tail with a final breath of boozy warmth. Not getting the advertised vanilla. Very thin, juicy, intentionally still, nice acid, strong heat. Would be lovely if bubbly. A little rough & simple but honest. A decent enough nightcap.
