    You have to let it breathe for a long time, the sherry veil disappears and a very nice nose emerges. Then mega in the mouth! Very full and warm. Dry wood and dried fruit. Long woody finish. Great Jamaican. No idea why it's still available. Edit: Already a collector's item.

    If you like Jamaican funk without too much bling this is it. Unfortunately the bottle has already become pretty high priced, no wonder with this well balanced profile and the tender care used when creating it. A perfect fruity and funky nose sliding into a wonderful palate with fruits, black tea and tannins. The finish is long and very well balanced with fruit and spices. Only 750 bottles made and thus very hard to find.

    To put it figuratively, the nose reminds me of a fermented dried fruit basket, plus allspice, old barrel, aniseed, wild herbs, caramel candy à la Werther's Echte. I like it extremely well! The palate is no less disappointing, caramel sweetness, mango, spices, barrel, slightly peppery. Long roasty-chocolaty finish! Absolutely top quality! Many thanks to Neuwied for this!

    great, old monymusk that entertains for long evening hours.
