brandy care arde / pişcă de limbă

Se referă la tăria băuturii, după părerea mea. Unele băuturi tari te ard / te pişcă pe limbă. Ca echivalente îţi propun : a arde / a pişca de limbă sau pur şi simplu tare

bite, sting, burn
cause a sharp or stinging pain or discomfort; "The sun burned his face"

"Pişcă de limbă" se spune despre condimente sau băuturi alcoolice care produc o senzaţie de usturime.

Ex:
Not having tasted brandy before, I’m not sure if I had a good ... the chance to try have had such a rich flavor that wasn’t overwhelmed by the ***alcohol bite***.

Brandy, cordials, rum vodka also used. Flavor is rich, subtle with mellow ***bite of spirit****. Shelf stable. Some brands use non-dairy creams.
Example sentence:

Higher proof slivovitz tends to have a harsher ***bite, simply due to the alcohol***.

It is quite sweet, but has the flavour and ***alcohol bite*** to back it up. This is first of its style for me, and the more I drank, the more I liked it.

brandy cu buchet intens

pana la urma, aroma (gustul) brandy-ului se numeste tot buchet si cred ca sensul pentru big bite este de strong - adica intens, "viguros" (cum vad ca e descrierea la unul din coniacurile din link), probabil putin acid. http://www.myman.ro/cadouri-barbati/bauturi-fine_cognac-bran...

brandy cu o aroma puternica/pronuntata

http://www.grape-nutz.com/tastings/glossary.html#B
Site pe care il citez este, cred , f. bun pentru articolul tau. Nu sunt sigura insa pe traducere. E un brandy care contine mult tanin ceea ce ii da o aciditate sporita. Nu poti sa-i spus acrisor. Deci ideea ca are o aroma puternica. ( "twang")

Cu un "buchet puternic/ robust" ?
http://www.vinul.ro/interviu_nicolae_itu.html
Este clar opusul lui "catifelat" din cauza continutui ridicat de tanin.

Ideea este ca "pisca" dar nu cred ca e maniera ca mai buna de a il lauda.
