Elderflower wine does not taste like grape wine. It tastes like... elderflower wine. I don't know that I would say that it tastes diaboloical. It tastes quite divine IMO... But the difference between hell and heaven may be very small. There is a Hassidic tale about hell being a sumptuous hall with huge tables laden with incredible food and drink but the chairs at are placed so that the only way to reach the food is with enormous spoons. Each person at the table has a spoon but these spoons are so huge that those at the table struggle impossibly to feed themselves and despite the sumptuous banquet they are starving. Heaven, the story goes, is identical. The same table, same chairs, same spoons and same delicious food. The only difference is that those at the tables feed one another...
