Lost Spirits Abomination The Sayers of the Law, 54%
Price: $50 ● Issue: Spring 2018 ● Reviewer: Susannah Skiver Barton
Aromas of smoked meat, kelp, saline, rubber, and butterscotch pudding make for a sweet and savory first impression. Flavors of burnt sugar, vanilla custard, cooked apple, dark cacao, black pepper, and salty umami carry through on a big, aggressive, hunger-sparking palate. The finish is unsweetened chocolate, ash, and pepper—bold and unapologetic, it responds well to water.
