    Funny, I thought the KC15 was unbalanced with too much oak already. I cracked this one & you are absolutely right, the oak is back in balance. It absolutely makes you wonder what a KC21 would be like.

    • @feistyalchemist3980
      @feistyalchemist3980 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      100% correct, KC15 is at the oak limit, maybe past it, so I'm surprised that KC18 is less oaky than that.
