tar piss

Hi there,
the problem words appear in the following sentence from a list: "the scent of some tar product, such as the scent of ***tar piss*** or pit tar".
I think it is the result of tar fractionation and apparently is the first fraction that is obtained. But what is 'tar piss' in Spanish (European)??
Many thanks, David

bitumen fétido
Encontré pisselaeum en mi diccionario técnico impreso. La traducción es "bitumen fétido".
Note from asker:
| Gracias Patricia. Creo que no tenemos que tener en cuenta la parte 'scent', que en el contexto también traduciría por algo así como 'fétido' o 'hediondo'. El piss tar es una fracción del alquitrán y 'piss' es lo que no sé como traducir. Mira esto: (n.) Earth pitch; a soft, black bitumen of the consistence of tar, and of a strong smell. It is inflammable, and intermediate between petroleum and asphalt. |
