Bottled wine contaminated with TCA (2,4,6-Trichloroanisole). Wine contaminated with TCA has a very specific moldy smell which can overpower the wine's usual aroma. Most commonly, TCA is produced when naturally occurring fungi come in to contact with not so naturally occurring chlorophenols in the cork used to bottle the wine.
The Cork Oak tree may have ingested the chlorophenols and stuffed them in its bark, or they can get in when the finished cork is sterilized with bleach.

Get the horked mug.A spot or film of fugitive adhesive. The greenish brown high profile low tack version found on the back of new credit cards is also called a booger dot.
Less disgusting than actual snot. More fun than a blob of rubber cement.
