Dude, this IS the DEAL. Tasting this within the line-up of K bigboys, it more than holds its own despite the more humbling pricing.

96 points James Suckling: "Tea-bag, sweet-tobacco, dark-fruit and lightly toasted-oak character. Full-bodied, chewy, and polished with a long, flavorful finish. Fine, powdery tannins."
