While some enthusiasts note a slightly short finish and a premium price, the distinctive blend of influences continues to charm genuine rum lovers around the world.

    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.

    Ich nenne es „ein Tanz zwischen den Welten“! Ich kann ihn nicht wirklich zuordnen..und er ist mir zu dünn
