    "Verkostet in einer Bar und auch nicht mehr ganz nüchtern 😂 Ordentlicher Monymusk aber auch nix besonderes. Evtl. Ist die Flasche auch schon etwas länger offen. An der Nase etwas besser als am Gaumen."

    "Eine Frische, Citrusfruchtige Nase mit so einigen künstlichen Anteilen. Da sind Ester und Jod und ein leichter, nicht so angenehmer Hauch Ammoniak. Wenn der verflogen ist kommt die angenehme säuerliche Süße von Mandarine und dir Würze von Vanille und Holz. Hmm, sehr bitter, salzig und ein bisschen zu pfeffrig und scharfkantig am Gaumen. Tue mich schwer die Frucht zu identifizieren, vielleicht Kumquat. Aber der bittere Ton ist zu sehr vorne. Bittermandel. So bleibt er auch im Abgang, salzig bitter holzig mit etwas Tee und Bittermandel. Da gibt’s deutlich bessere JMM."
