Can one have too much Eszencia?

Yes, I am afraid so; this time I bit off more than I could chew. It is not that the Úri Borok 2000 Demijohn-Version is not good - it is downright fabulous - but rather that I bought more than I could consume, or even afford. So, if someone is interested in getting to try the real, unfiltered, unfined deal, at a good price, send me a PM. (I think a fellow WLDG member - Tom Troiano? - once asked if a post such as this was acceptable and got a positive reply.)

Allow me to quote what my friend Rainer once wrote here on WLDG:
"Úri Borok Pincészete, Mád - thanks to Vince & Szilvia Gergely:
2000 Eszencia (from demijohn) - A majestic monster (having at least 650 g/l of residual sugar) that never started fermenting. Avalanche-like power. Perfectly harmonious, fresh and clean. Revealing creamy white-chocolate, Darjeeling tea, dried fruits, tobacco and salty minerality. Very very long on the finish."

Do not forget that this is "non-fermented grape juice", which should mean that there should be no problems with customs. (Grape juice cannot possibly be prohibited, can it?)

So exactly how much of this did you buy?

Well, at least less than a fellow Tokaji-Fan - sadly no longer that active over here - who bought two demijohns (roughly thirteen gallons )

Two glasses=pancreatic arrest?

It is funny you say that, Peter. The friend I mentioned - who tends to live his life in the fast lane, so to speak - once drank so much that he required medical assistance. Not only can the amount of sugar consumed be harmful, the acid levels cannot be ignored either.
