    "A fine product! On the palate, caramel, coconut and citrus mingle with leather. Very pleasant to have a mix of agricultural and molasses. Great fun to drink, very, very good indeed! Finish a little short, however. Unfortunately, the price is far too high."

    "Very successful, slightly reminiscent of Damoiseau 1991, also a combination of molasses and agricol. The price could be lower, but it tastes really great."
