    Aroma: Honey Vanilla Pear Cinnamon

    Geschmack: Cremig und vollmundig. Mit Vanille und Honig.

    Abgang: Langanhaltend süß. Etwas Eichenholznoten

    Kommentar: Immer wieder

    Aroma: Sweet Vanilla Citrus Banana Pear

    Geschmack: Citrus Banana Oak Spices

    Abgang: Oak Spices

    Kommentar: Riecht nach einer Mischung aus süßer überreifer Banane mit etwas Birne und zitrischen Noten. Im Geschmack dann weniger süß und relativ trocken mit Gewürzen und der Eiche. Die überreife Banane und die Süße rücken in den Hintergrund. Im Abgang weiterhin viel Eiche und Gewürze.

    Aroma: Honey Berries Fruit die Beeren gehen in eine fruchtige Kaugummi Note, die besser riecht als es sich anhört.

    Geschmack: Honey Berries Apple Malt

    Abgang: Honey Oak

    Kommentar: Ein Drama mit Charakter. Wo manche Standart Balvinies nur versuchen niemanden zu verprellen sucht hier eine Flasche nicht jedem aber jemanden wirklich zu gefallen. Ein wenig teuer für die Specs, aber interessant.
