“We had a wonderful tasting at my birthday party on Friday. Very relaxed and cosy. Very complex and kind of heavy rum, what's not to like :-) Not as fruity as I'd expected but nice and woody with smoke and chocolate. After a few hours the nose is wonderful in the glass. Dry with a long finish.”

“The recently tasted 98 Nobilis was more with apple, the RomDeLuxe, on the other hand, comes more over the plum nose. There are toasty aromas, chocolate and a subtle, pleasant freshness. The palate adds tobacco and latte. The finish again very smoky / roasty.”
