“80% OWH 2012 20% <>H 2016 In direct comparison with '20, '21 and '22: least intense on the nose, more marzipan, brightest together with 21, a bit more tart and powerful than the others on the palate. Quite smooth and restrained on the nose, seems fresh and vinegar at the same time. Clearly solvent and some ester, citrus, perhaps lemon or yet tangerine? A slightly sweet marzipan note mixes in. Sourly fruity with pineapple. A bit woody with vanilla. On the palate it comes across sour-salty-bitter at first, yet seems a bit creamy. Hampden esters towards glue are also found now. Citrus in the direction of grapefruit and again marzipan. At the back, some anise is added. In the finish to the anise, orange peel and green tea. A very pleasant blend.”

“I think the bottling lives a little from the price and the limited availability these days. The GH 20 simply tasted better to me neat. But it's brutally cool to have gotten a sample through Rod. 85/100”
