Many of us who work with ambergris, frustrated with the different flavor profiles of ambergris tincture, settle for one vintage tincture over another instead of blending a collection of tinctures to round out the final profile. In this blend, I’ve combined tinctures of various ages—from six months to 10 years—to bring out the potency of each. There indeed seems to be a symbiotic relationship with some tinctures such that the whole ends up larger than the sum of the parts. This ambergris has an underlying funkiness that some more “refined” tinctures lack.
