TASTING NOTE: This is made from William pears. In all the world of smells in eaux de vie, this is quite possibly one of the most incontestable aromas of all. It is a mix of ripe pears and a little note of confectionary. This is bright and fresh and lively. (Ben Knight, theweeklyreview.com.au, Sept. 25, 2012) Price $ 110.95
