Nose
Smells hot. And rubbery and industrial. Smoky, in an industrial sort of way. Marijuana. Sea salt. Toasted seaweed. Carbonized salmon skin. Mango. Pineapple. Char.
Palate
Medium oily mouthfeel. Sweet and savory. Industrial. Pineapple. Mango. Peaches. Lychee. Fruit cocktail. And oil. And earth. Diesel. Rubber. Iron. Marjoram. A bit of a candied note as well. Like a haribo tropical fruit chewy.
Finish
Long finish. Herbal and smoky now. More like burnt herbs. I'm not even sure which, but maybe herbs de provance. And seaweed. But all burnt. And charred meat as well.
