On the nose it's very appealing!!! It's hard to let it air out 🤤 Very fruity and a floral/medicinal touch. In the mouth it's extra!!! A huge kick!!! Intensely complex! A nice slap in the face ❤❤ I don't regret having picked up a bottle 👌Coup de coeur du moment 🔥Second bottle received!!! Half empty bottle. Softer on the attack. Taste remains just as deep.

on the nose on the sweet-fruity side: coconut, tropical fruit, candied, popcorn...but also barrel, vanilla, spices (cardamom, clove) and alcoholic spiciness. Noticeably more 'adult' on the palate with smoky charred notes and tobacco and menthol on the finish (somewhere between the 2001/2020 RA TDL and the 1994/2017 Velier Caroni).

My second sampling and I have to say that this is an outstanding TDL. Just the right mix of tropical fruit, wood and rubber.

A nose a little closed but a superb mouth, beautiful fruit salad which concludes by notes a little darker (smoke, coffee). A great success.

Horny nose! Taste me unfortunately too ethereal oily, almost sauna infusion moderate and a very strange acidity and furry. Alcohol well integrated but somehow I do not quite clear on the...

While the nose is very much dominated by herbs and spices, there is an intense (and surprising) hint of orange and citrus alongside other fruits and herbs from the nose. Interesting stuff!
