Eszencia

Eszencia - This absolute rarity gained from the free-run juice of the aszú ("botrytized" in Hungarian) grapes is a unique nectar with a honey-like concentration.

Note:
"aszú-eszencia" is different from "Tokaji eszencia". The former is essentially a type of aszú wines, which have gone through maceration & pressiing (whereas the latter did not). The latter is sweeter and more concentrated than honey (over 800 grams of residual sugar is not that abnormal) and it is virtually everlasting.
