“This is a very tate bottle and I was lucky that my friend sampled a bottle. The nose is very well balanced with banana, wood, licorice olives and light menthol. The palate is complex and well balanced with overripe bananas, olive, licorice, sugarcane as well as salty with very light wood. The finish is very long and warm with banana and licorice.”

“The woody nose comes after a good 5 minutes of aeration, even the nuts. It's a pity that the mouth does not follow the nose. We have this spicy side which is quite present and which for me bothers me a little, to see by letting it breathe longer.”
