The poets at Lambertus

@casualtorture I can set you up, for sure...

This is NOT my experience of the nose and taste.

The only word correct in this description is « attack » as it is an attack on your senses.

@casualtorture My "redacted" Tasting Notes:

Subjective: lures you in with fresh crisp granny smith. Then pungent fetid pond scum with bacterial growth, marinated with socks from many marathon runners. Tasted corn grist, explosion of heat followed by mineral oil paint thinner, simple syrup with a tongue coating texture, lead (not pencil shaving but the actual metal) industrial fuel (diesel). Finish tongue coating mucus texture, the stagnant pond scum comes back up. Objective: rushed distillation and in the process someone forgot to cut the tail and let the feints in.

The memory of the taste lingers in your mind and senses for about 24 hours after the initial tasting.

@fiddich1980 Your tasting notes make me want to try it more....

So much interest in Lambertus. Maybe I should put my open bottle up for auction.

The bottom line remains the same: bad is just bad. Lambertus doesn't really make it to 'interesting bad'. It is just bad.

Jim Murray liked Lambertus to the tune of 44 points, which I think was his second lowest score from that particular Bible (2015), given a quick scan. Mr. Murray's lowest score went to Kiwi Whisky at 37 points. .

This is the pride of Belgium. We need @markjedi1, our resident Belgian maltmeister, to weigh in on this one.

@markjedi1 was the first of three on Connosr to review Lambertus. He gave it the highest of the three scores.

I called it 'Aqua Vitae Horribilis' for a reason. Still one of the worst whiskies I've tried.
