    Discovered at a private tasting. Nice opening but clearly not worth the price. The 40° reduction is already hurting it. The olfactory markers are not expressive enough. Slight caramel cooked in milk, a woody presence on the vanilla cream, some spices, slightly floral. On the palate, there's a little more milk cocoa. Citrus fruits mingle with cocoa. It's smooth and rather elegant, so it's perhaps worth a try for neophytes, the only downside being the price.

    Quite nice even with only 40 % ABV. Rich, sweet and full o flavour.
