| Tasting Notes |
| Robert Karlsson | Rather tameish anonymous one. On whiffs of smoke, slightly earthy and malty sweetness with mandarins. Not much else? Unsure. Elegant? Special low-key taste, on those mandarins and vague whiffs of smokiness. Enjoyable but low intensity. |
| Krishna Nukala | Smoke and peat,mild chalk and some floral notes,- Exceedingly sweet palate, spicy, but smooth. It has fantastic body and delicious taste. Excellent sweet finish. You can have it as dessert after dinner (Blind tasting notes of MMA 2013) |
