Tastes like a tire shop
This is my first raicilla, so maybe it's *supposed* to taste like a tire shop. But omg, this tastes like a tire shop. Open the bottle, take a whiff and you are transported to Pep Boys, shiny black radials lined up. Take a sip and maybe you've escaped to the car stereo section – you can still smell the fresh rubber but it's not as overwhelming. It's still there.
