In response to reader requests for bargains, this is a cracker. An unusual blend, which I am reliably informed was first made by accident (the producers discovering the unintentional blend worked well).
Produced on Slovenia's border with Austria, it represents excellent value for money, is surprisingly complex and refined. If you took this to a party you would leave having more friends than you arrived with.
