Dusty nose when first opened i thoguht it was flawed so didn't drink any more so the decanter got sealed for the next day.
t+24
The dustiness blew off after 30 more minutes in air.
Sour cherry liquor on the nose with something more vibrant reminds me muhc like a red currant with a hint of cinnamon spices.
Coating but thinning body that over powers iwth spirits and black licorice with a strange after taste of mud followed very quickly by a strong spirit burn you find in some cheap irish whiskey. There's a lingering bitter licorice taste that stays in the mouth.
I'm hoping it's the bottle or lack of air time.
80-83.
