Bottled. Water colour with no head. Aroma is fruity, aniseedy with some slight tones of alcohol sweetness. Flavour is rice, some aniseed, pears, alcohol and some slight herbal tones. Alcohol gives a strong kick in the finish. A bit boozy, but otherwise really pleasant!

Taster at Jam. Clear, thick looking. Thick and ricy, very grainy. Sweet rice flavor, grainy and a bit rough. This 80% polish makes for a thick, rough brew.
