Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Crystal clear and brilliantly clean, reflecting the high level of distillation and filtration.
- Nose: Surprisingly neutral at first, opening up to hints of grain spirit, white pepper, and a faint herbal sharpness. Despite the high proof, the nose is not overwhelming—just boldly assertive.
- Palate: Explosive and intensely warming. Balkan 176 delivers a dry, fiery kick with notes of peppery spice, cereal grain, and a subtle mineral edge. It maintains a degree of smoothness that is remarkable for its strength, showcasing the skill in its production.
- Finish: Extremely long and dry, with a warming heat that lingers. Expect a clean, powerful exit with a pure spirit character and no unnecessary sweetness or additives.
Please Note: Due to its extreme strength, Balkan 176 should only be used in very small quantities and never consumed neat. Always drink responsibly and with full awareness of its potency.
