Serge Valentin (85)

I know, a sherry finish, which sounds as scary as some asparagus soup blended with American coffee to me (couldn’t think of anything weirder just now)… Oh and yeah, I thought it would be smart to taste a Feis 2017 before the 2018 edition started. Some sense of timing, you know… Colour: pale gold. Nose: rubber boots and carbon paper, asparagus soup indeed (I told you), and not a drop of American coffee. All nice, and no whacky sherry that I can detect, so all is fine in the best of worlds so far. Mouth: frankly, this is very good. Sure it’s pretty rubbery, oddly tarry, bizarrely sour, and even kind of dirty and perverse, but there sure is more action than in the 25 years old Golden Millionaire Edition (are you sure that was the name, S.?) What’s more, the sherry seems to bring something poetically rotten. Old ham, marrow soup, mutton suet, something like that. Finish: long, salty, smoky. Very salty, actually. Someone may have added seawater while Fred L. was not watching. Comments: a good and funny gruel, full of bumps and unlikelinesses – but I’ve heard it may attract aliens, so please be careful.
