    This is a lovely bottle and I'd like to have on or two of them on my shelves, but unfortunately that's not an option. Very fruity with smoky wood and vanilla. The palate is sweet and lightly bitter, yum, I love it.

    8,5:On the nose, the first impression we get is a smoky wood, nutty, slightly roasted and spicy with anise, vanilla, as molasses is flowery and also brings pencil shavings.Some nice fruits are present, like citrus, apple and pear. On aeration, fruitier aspect takes the torch with orange peel, mango, banana with a help of light esters, the molasses is now fresh, grassy and herbaceous, ends with a metallic touch. 8,4:On the palate, the attack is quite soft, fruity with banana and citrus fruits when oxidized, our tasting buds might notice plum, orange, the molasses is herbaceous, vegetal with pencil shavings, some licorice, a bit bitter, later grassy, flowery, as the wood is nutty, slightly smoky and spicy. 8,1:The finish is quite thin, medium long and furry, tannic, pencil shavings still present, also herbaceous touch and mostly variety of wood notes, with faint fruits...

    Color: Pale goldSmell:Even from a distance I smell fruity ester aromas.At the beginning fruity with vanilla and wood.Aromas of pear and apple. At the same time alcoholic fresh, slightly floral with some perfume.Taste:In the mouth sweet, spicy with citrus.When swallowing even more spicy with herbal flavors. Also fruity with vanilla.Finish:Medium lengthSpicy, peppery, herbal and spicy, also woody and still slightly fruity.86 points.

    Auto-translated

    Although the colour is terribly continental pale, the smell is pleasant. Woody, pear, Guyanese esters, some chemistry, maybe pencil stiffness. The taste is a decent trip. Vanilla at first, but then a fun bitter chemical charge kicks in. Finishes with herbs, burnt wood, spice and earthiness. Maybe even pu-erh tea. This being a full tropical aging, I'm in heaven😃.
