“Vanillemark, Cola, mango/pfirsich-schwarztee und balsamico, sowie grüne Walnusslikör Noten an der Nase. extrem komplex, süß, vielseitig und Intensiv. geschmacklich: dunkel, bitter, leicht säuerlich, malzig, schokoladig, Mokka und schwarzer Kardamom, Ceylon Tee, grüner Tee mit Minze, medjoul Datteln, Dörrpflaumen sowie extrem geile intensive und pure Melasse & Cola Noten! absoluter wahnsinn, das das Ding nach 38y nicht nur noch nach Holz schmeckt. geiler Stoff und flüssige Geschichte. deutlich weniger holzig als erwartet, diese intensive, dickflüssige Melasse, grüne Walnuss und Pflaumen Note ist einfach gigantisch! Nur Preislich wären 200€ weniger eher angemessen...”
