    March 15, 2022 - No specific notes as this was enjoyed with friends. The earthier funkier side of KB that took a minute to blow off. Worried it was a bad bottle but things self corrected. Not a favorite. Remeber liked it better when younger.

    May 21, 2021 - PnP. This is full and deep and vibrant red fruit wrapped in a smooth package. Would have never have guess it was 13 years old if served blind.

    May 11, 2021 - Gorgeous. Very perfumed, and the red berry fruits were still very fresh and vibrant. I wouldn't consider it cola. No hard edges whatsoever. Everything you would expect from a well aged Kosta Browne.

    March 28, 2020 - A little light, still showing the Kosta Browne expression - drink now. Drank with the 09. The 09 still has a bit of time (this year).
