Originally drank close to release, but wasn't keeping track of vintages back than. So this is for the 2013 vintage, sampled in 2024 .
Pours fairly clear amberblonde. Small but present white head. Scent has age (old oak, cork ) very strong citrussy aroma from the yuzu, still dominant after 11 years. Taste is raw, tart, surprisingly light and elegant, yuzu, mild in acidity, very short finish. Still got some carbonation. Mild mushroomy factor from the age. Very wattery mouth feel, which does bother me, as well as the absent of any aftertaste. Very promising nose ( appart from the age factor ) but the taste is a let down. Past its prime for sure, not due to age-oriented flavors- those are acceptable in their intensity - but more due to the sheer boringness this has become. I remember it being far, far better.

At Mrk’s. Bottle🙏Maakun! Smells great, very fresh sweet lemonpeel. Taste reminds me of lemon based cleaner, but not solely. Very fruity, a bit sweaty & grassy, light salty aswell. Light sweet, light sour. Medium body, light minerals, very juicy & nice.
