It has a good old feel and slightly dried citrus notes, along with barley and honey nuances, and a hidden ammonia-like nuance. When drinking, there's a slightly detached nuance and some watery aspect, but the lemon and peach notes, along with the barley umami that seeps into the tongue like a classic old official standard, made it good.
