    "Deutlich besser wie der mit dem Orange wine cask finish. Sau leckere Nase nach reifer Mango, Kakao, gerösteten Mandeln und anderen tropischen Früchten aber auch ungewöhnlich rauchig. Am Gaumen dann würzig und fruchtig nach Banane, Rauchmandeln, Olivenlake und getrockneten Früchten aber auch der Cognac vom Fass macht sich bemerkbar. Bis dahin ist er auch echt lecker aber im Abgang wird's dann doch recht bitter, holzig und rauchig, daher leichte Punktabzüge."
