Meget lys. Dufter mest floralt. Honning sødme i smagen og en smule citrus. Let drikkelig rom men også lidt ensformigt.

5.9/10

Schöne Aromen allerdings viel zu flach. Sehr stark verdünntes destillat. Schade. Den das ursprüngliche destillat hat leichte Noten von Pfirsich und Banane mit Karamell und vanille abgerundet. Würde den gerne mal höherprozentig probieren
