Review by Johannes
Großartig! Alte Schule. Schön ausgewogen, trotz der wenigen Prozente nicht dünn, viel Melasse, fruchtig-grasig mit dunklen, leicht muffigen Guyana-Note.
Review by Oliver
Ungewöhnlicher Agricole. Geht Richtung Le Galion. Hat eine schöne, schwere Süße.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#4163 A very nice Agricole with a slightly atypical profile. Loved the menthol and floral notes and the ABV was well integrated.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very round vintage grand arome. Lots of currant, sour cherry, menthol, cinnamon gum, tannins and bitter orange . Yummy! Would love to test in full proof!

Die Nase ist hier dominierend..am Gaumen verliert er etwas
Review by Alex1981
Great nose for the low abv, wood, fruits & melasse on the palate but short on the finish. Pleasant
