Opening A Tin? Show Us!

First time contributing to this thread, but I’m opening something special to me, so here goes.
2008 Alfred & Christian Petersen Escudo.

We’re glad you’re here.
I suspect you have one of the more legendary cellars here.
I hope you want to do this more often.

I more than suspect that the "legendary cellar" is a lot more mundane than people think. It's pretty modest. I do know a couple of people with really legendary cellars, the likes of which I wish I had.

But the most important thing is that you enjoy what you have.

2016 Royal Yacht. Been holding on to this tin for a few years. Got it in a lot purchased from a forum member a while back. Been apprehensive about opening it because of its reputation. But like the kids say, you only YOLO once, or something View attachment 368575

So how do you like it compared to fresh? I had a tin of 2017 and to be honest I prefer it fresh. The topping had faded a little and thats what I love most about the Yacht.

First time trying the Yacht. Letting it breathe a bit. Probably fire some up this weekend.
