"Wow, a real aroma spectacle. Cherry gummy bears, sherry and a great woody influence. Extraordinarily good!"

"Just wow, the only downside to going over 90 is the slight lack of length."

"Blind Community Tasting Courcelles 1972 by Jakob Extrem fruchtig und an der Nase spielen Rote Früchte fast die alleinige Hauptrolle (neben dem Parfum). Toll. Holt mich extrem ab. Am Gaumen dann etwas dunkler aber immernoch extrem fruchtig. Evtl. Mit ein paar eingekochten dabei. Vanille, Zimt und irgendwie prickelnd. Vor allem lang anhaltend und sich entwickelnd. Für mich klar bester der Reihe."

"Outstanding stuff! Overall clearly a couple of points ahead of the Rhum House bottlings (which are amazing as well). Intense and complex on the nose. Thick boild down fruits take center stage combined with a mix of Christmas-y spices, some chocolate, honey and an amazing perfume note in the back. Similar notes on the palate with a well balanced delivery. Very elegant. Top notch! Cheers Jakob for the set!"
