Sehr runder, leicht fruchtiger Hampden.
Review by Filip Šikula
K tomuhle ptáčkovinse vracím po několika měsících podruhé, a bohužel ho to bude stát pár bodů hodnocení, protože mám víc s čím srovnat. Opět se objevuje hořkost, a takový divný odchod v hrdle, opět takové zbytečně moc uhlazené. Přesto z doposud ochutnaných ptáčků nejlepší.

Dank Johannes war es möglich diesen kleinen Birds Flight zu machen. Im Rennen waren 2xOWH, 5xLFCH (darunter den HV LFCH gemischt) und 2xLROK. Als Fazit meiner Seits, ab LROK machen sie mehr Spaß, die Low Ester Fraktion geht schon. Meiner Meinung nach, sind die Birds das Geld nicht wert, sondern eher ein Sammelobjekt. Große Unterschiede sind für mich nicht wirklich zu erkennen.

The rum was opened for ages, it could degrade the taste of the rum
