    Schön intensiv in der Nase. Zunächst Ester-ähnlich künstlich, Lösungsmittel, leicht metallisch. Dann sehr fruchtig: süße Zitrone und Limette, Kiwi/ Stachelbeere und Birne/ Quitte. Hinten raus süß-saure Passionsfrucht. Dadrüber eine leichte Essig-Note. Hinten immer süßer werdend. Am Gaumen dann leicht bitter, salzig, hin zum Künstlichen, leicht nach Plastik schmeckend. Zitronenschale kommt noch hinzu. In der Mitte kurz etwas Bleistiftmine oder feines Kettenöl, leicht metallisch. Und leider doch verwässert, was deutlich das Potenzial einbüßen lässt, dass Fiji immer für mich hat. Im Abgang noch etwas metallisch, etwas Anis und grüner werdend. Wäre er nicht reduziert, würde ich ihm mehr Punkte geben können, denn Fiji kann was und der hier könnte auch was…

    Leider merkt man hier das kurze alter. Sein großer Bruder hat es da besser getroffen

    Nicht die spannendste Abfüllung. Fiji in Reinform, nicht zu aufdringlich wie viele junge Wilde, aber auch nicht zu rund, mit Fiji-Ecken und -Kanten. Würde mir vermutlich gut gefallen, wenn er nicht so verdünnt wäre. Schnell verschwunden und kraftlos in den Aromen, hier wurde wieder mal viel Potential verschenkt…
