“Eine warme, volle Nase. Sehr reif, sanft und ausgewogen. Komplex und würzig. Holz, gebrannter Zucker und Gewürze im Mund. Nicht besonders kräftig (aber weit weg von verwässert). Schöner Abgang. Ein schöner, archetypischer Demerara, süffig und zum Genießen. Für höhere Weihen fehlt im aber dann das Besondere.”

“Erneut ein Versailles, was angesichts der Farbe nicht unmittelbar erkenntlich wird. Viel herbe Würzigkeit, Röstnoten und leichte Bitterkeit vom Holz sowie dezente Teearomen. Mir fehlt es an etwas frischen Früchten, um mehr Balance reinzubringen. Insgesamt spannend, aber keiner meiner Versailles-Favoriten.”
