King of Duck Shit Aroma
This is a single-family production of Duck Shit Dan Cong from naturally growing 80yr old+ trees.
Infusions
- Oily mouthfeel. Savory white grape leading to a back of tongue/top of throat cooling and charcoal roast flavor. Very long finish with roasted honey flavors. Low dryness with the oily mouthfeel lasting through the finish. A tinge of bitterness that is balanced by the honey and fruit. The cooled wet leaf reveals a ton of floral notes that were masked by roasted notes when still hot.
- Popcorn and white grape, rambutan balanced with light bitterness. Some more astringency. Kind of reminds me of an authentic corn tortilla.
- Less roast and more floral, volatile notes of white grape and honey. Muscatel grape.
- Straight up ice wine
- Charcoal-powered ice wine with some more noticeable floral aroma on the exhale. Some vegetal funk in the aftertaste. Very cooling around the mouth and middle of the throat.
- Some light notes of oats and vanilla on top of the roasted ice wine flavor.
- Creamier oat milk-like flavors with a bit of vegetal bitters.
- Very similar to the last infusion.
- Seems to be holding this flavor on its way out and will continue drinking for about 5 or 6 infusions off the record.
