Irgendwie anders als die klassischen 2000er TDls. Dieser hat so eine süße Pfirsich-Note, die mich an den TDl 2003 RX5971 erinnert.

Getestet mit zwei T.D.L aus 2000, dem swell und den neuen TWJ. Ja, der Familie Ricci ist ein 2003, kann hier aber definitiv nicht mit den beiden anderen mithalten, da er für mich zu alkoholisch ist. Der TWJ ist im Gegensatz zum letzten Release von ihnen schon ein wenig besser. Als Fazit bleibt, dass der Swell und TWJ, als mich für nicht unbedingt größten T.D.L Liebhaber, gleich auf sind.

9.0/10

Nez relativement fermé, il lui faut du temps. Puis des fruits jaunes et un caramel leger. En bouche, ca explose, des fruits bien murs, mangue et peche en tete. La finesse mais avec un tres joli peps. En toute de fin de bouche, un gros retour de mangue bien mure et juteuse (l element declancheur pour moi). Belle longueur. Un cran net au dessus du twj 2000 (1ere edition). Bref on ne s ennuie pas, un peps qui fait du bien sur un 2000, super choix. Bravo a swell et versus.

8.6/10

Light color for a 2000, rich nose of pastries, plain flan, exotic fruits, and dried fruits. Very pronounced sugar, brown sugar, even Demerara. Frank and fresh on the palate with eucalyptus and a very subtle hint of menthol. It holds up remarkably well for a 2000, with custard on the finish. I was very intrigued not to find blackcurrant on the first sip... But that was before the second sip, when the blackcurrant returned to boost the aromas behind the hint of mint. Custard is part of this superb aromatic range. Medium-length, warm finish with alcohol!
