Endless and/or Endless Advance is one of those car customization suppliers and like most suppliers participates in events such as shows and/or races to market their products. Usually these demonstartions are accompanied by models, which in Japan are called "Race Queens". Race queens usually appear in groups and are actually fully clothed in uniform unfortunately. Chinese nations and Thailand also seem to follow this approach. Some models have become quite famous for being a race queen, but it's usually a group thing. I don't know how other people get pics, but the race queens always indiciate to me no pics... I must look evil or something.
Nose: red fruit juice, honey, smoked unsalted fish.
Palate: initial and mid palate is honey, back palate has a slight young tofu taste, doughtnut glaze.
Finish: medium to long, abv burn, wooded honey.
Not bad, a little different from the first Endless Advance Clynelish (1996), no smoke elements, but similar sweet honey elements. I guess Clynelish isn't my thing.
Grade: C+
Couldn't find quantifiable, reliable reviews.
