“This is a tasting set from 2022 where we had a lot of fun around the table. Another really nice release from Valinch & Mallet and the price tag matches what you get. Fruity with a nice smoky note in the profile with good ABV integration. There is a light nutty note on the profile. Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass is really nice with some added chocolate and light coffee.”

“Lots of oak, woody spices, dark chocolate, pears and vanilla cream - Fantastic longevity and mouthfeel - what's not to like 😎”

“The look at the label arouses excitement, because from the frame data very similar to the Shibbo. On the nose comes at the beginning a delicious scent of cream candy, only after a while in the glass come more FS typical notes like the coconut. On the palate, dark chocolate, but also a hefty helping of roasted flavors (roasted nuts) and decent wood barrel. The finish is again quite soft. Conclusion: Not as round as the Shibbo, but finally again a FS with character and rough edges!”
