The jury panel gave their organoleptic evaluation:
Surprise (10 y.o.): “Rich chocolate, tobacco, and leather meld seamlessly with dried spices and cherries. Citrus and floral notes dance on the palate, leading to a warm, spicy finish. Complexity deepens, revealing tobacco and forest floor nuances”.

KVINT (5 y.o.) Kosher: “Stone fruit and sweet vanilla spice notes on the nose with a palate dominated by pineapples, pears, and apricots. The finish also gives a tobacco smokiness and coffee richness”.
