“Solider Rum, aber mir insgesamt zu wenig aussagekräftig. Gefällt dank eines runden Profils - womit aber auch gleichzeitig die Kritik beginnt, denn leider fehlen mir hier ein wenig die Spannungsmomente und Komplexität - ein „Problem“, das mir bei den Traditionelles von Savanna häufiger begegnet. Aber dabei handelt sich auch nicht zu meinem subjektiv präferierten Rumstil.”
