Bottle courtesy of Kostas, Kykao, had this at Dave's, Unterhaching München with the RB München tasting group, Friday 21st July 2023. Pours slightly darker brown than the previous two reserves, there is a filmy head. Seems to be a good bit sweeter than the Flor version, a lot of caramel sweetness here, there is a smooth oakiness (vanilla) warming, good.

Bottle brought by Fin, thanks! Light brown with small head. Nose is dry brown sugar with vanilla and bourbon. Tangy and rich on the tongue, sweeter than Pencil. Fantastic bready complexity!
