“Erster Eindruck beim Sampel abfüllen ist leider nicht so beeindruckend. Würde ich jetzt hinter den CoR, WuDram und Konsorten einordnen. Aber wird in Ruhe nochmal verkostet, wenn es weniger hektisch ist. Für mich war er auch ein wenig zu alkoholisch.”

“Klebstoff, Nagellackentferner, Ester und Lösungsmittel dominieren an der Nase. Wirkt im direkten Vergleich mit dem WDC jünger, unruhiger und am Gaumen fehlt etwas die Power. Für mich kein Spitzenvertreter der <>h aus 2013/2014.”

“Der Zero Nine tritt heute an gegen den CoR Hampden <>H 2013, meiner aktuellen persönlichen Referenz unter den 2013/2014er <>H Abfüllungen. In der Nase ist der Zero Nine einen Ticken fruchtiger als der CoR, letzterer aber deutlich intensiver und wilder. Am Gaumen ist der Zero Nine dann zunächst etwas fruchtiger, aber auch eindimensionaler als der CoR und außerdem geht ihm auch recht früh die Puste aus. Der CoR hingehen ist vielschichtiger mit einer schönen Salznote, Oliven und Klebstoff und einem tollen, intensiven Wechselspiel zwischen süß und leicht bitter und salzig. Der Zero Nine ist hier etwas alkoholischer und weniger komplex. Auch eine leichte Vanillenote ändert hier nichts daran, dass der CoR klar überlegen ist. Mit etwas Wasser öffnet sich der Zero Nine noch etwas, kann dem CoR aber weiterhin nicht das Wasser reichen und bleibt vergleichsweise blass. Schade, ich hatte mir hier wirklich mehr erwartet vom Zero Nine. So bleibt dieser für mich bisher einer der schwächsten Vertreter der <>H Abfüllungen. Der CoR hat für meinen Geschmack wesentlich mehr Power.”
