Review by Jakob
Crosstasting 1997er Caronis aus kontinentaler Lagerung: Knackiges HTR-Profil mit überraschender Feurigkeit. Im Profil mit angenehmer Aromenbreite, bespielt die gesamte Bandbreite der lange gelagerten HTR-Welt und gefällt mit zugänglicher Aromatik, es fehlt aber an Alleinstellungsmerkmalen.
