Wow, wieder mal ein sehr gelungener Long Pond meiner Meinung nach. Finde diesen sehr süffig und macht Lust auf mehr. Und wie es nun mal bei mir so üblich ist, habe ich ihn völlig überraschend auch als Mixer ausprobiert. Super lecker.
Very reserved nose, needs some time. Then comes slightly fruity with plantain and a hint of papaya. Fine ester notes are there. But also this dry spicy of leather and tobacco and a slight sweetness of honey.Delicious, spicy on the palate. A nice light sweetness with a slight bitter note. Leather and tobacco are back. Anise comes in the back with esters (but not much).In the finish it remains salty bitter and goes towards tea.I like.

Spannender Low Ester Long Pond. Hier ist viel los. Warm am Gaumen mit einem fleischig, süßem Profil und dann Kühl im Abgang mit Menthol. Die Nase hat richtig viel Vanille und Frucht. Lecker und einfach zu trinken. Hier kann lange geforscht und gleichzeitig einfach gesippt werden. P/L=👌
