• Serving Suggestion: Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to open aromas; the miniature format encourages easy sampling

• Collectible Notes:

  • While the miniature “new version” is not rare, it can still be collectible for those assembling a set of formats or variants

  • Condition matters: intact seal, clean label, and correct fill level are important even in mini bottles
