Review by Skyfly
Für mich einer der besten 1997er Caronis die ich im Glas hatte. Lecker, ausgewogenes Verhältnis zwischen Frucht und dreckigen Aromen. Die Farbe ist sonderbar grün und erinnert an den Anniversary Cuvée von Swell.
Review by Banana Joe
Wow, absolutely positively surprised. That such a great Caroni still comes onto the market nowadays, I didn't think it was possible. Anything but the standard low profile Caronis that still come out today. Perfect mix of dirty and fruity notes. SotD delivered again, I immediately ordered more. Will taste it again later in peace.
