Review by mto75
a lot of root vegetables on the nose. I like Sajous unaged much better in this case.
Review by cigares
Comparative series of Clairins ansyens. Clearer on the nose than the Sajous (54.2% 21 months), but much less attractive on the palate. Very aromatic on the first nose, with very light volatility and dried fruit. Slightly spicy and acidic on the palate before the fruit shows through. Alcohol fairly well integrated. Medium-long finish with candied fruit. Thank you Dr Django for the sample.
Review by DosenZorn
Clairin Cosstasting Vol. 2 mit Sajous 22 Monate (RX7920) Vaval 22 Monate (RX7929) Die Sajous DNA ist an der Nase noch deutlich vorhanden. Zitrus, pflanzlich grasig und leicht metallisch. Die Lagerung macht aus meiner Erinnerung überhaupt nicht bemerkbar. Recht eindimensional finde ich. Am Gaumen wieder die Sajous-typischen Zitrusaromen, hier macht sich die Lagerung bemerkbar. Eine dezente Süße und eine leichte Bitterkeit. Leider finde ich den Alkohol nicht optimal eingebunden. Der Vaval ist deutlich besser! Finde da den ungelagerten Sajous sogar besser.
Review by Thunderbird
Gut gemachter Clairin… aber etwas zu eindimensional!
