"Very, very nice round and digestible TDL that offers even more fruity facets but still doesn't completely lose the characteristic mint :) great! plus some ginger and chamomile, as well as slightly medicinal notes. somehow also reminds me of the green apple rings from the past, just not sweet 😅"

"I can't get enough of this bottling. An aromatic bomb on the nose, finish and retro olfaction. No bitterness, just pleasure. The only downside is a slightly timid attack on the palate."

"Low scoring so far but this is very nice in my opinion. Would be better at high strength but love the petroly mangos on the palate."

"Příjemné, kulaté a komplexní TDL, jen bohužel velmi řídké. Na nose mimo klasickou mátu a koření méně obvyklý zázvor a později k trocha špíny. V chuti jdou první citrusy, potom koření a nakonec se to vytratí uplně do ztracena. Bohužel."
