    "Absolutes Brett mit einer Hammer UVP! Tolle Nase aus Karamellbonbons, tropischem Obstsalat, mit vor allem Ananas und Honigmelone und ordentlich Klebstoff und Würze. Geschmacklich würzig intensiv süß nach jungem Holz, viel Gewürzen, Karamell , Ananas und ordentlich Klebstoff. Das Ding macht richtig Spaß und der Alkohol ist absolut perfekt integriert! Insgesamt find ich den batch 2 mit 66,1% aber ein Stück besser! Scheiß auf die "Standard" great house Serie, this is the real shit going on! 🤣🤤🥂🇯🇲💥💣 Hätte ich wirklich gerne ne Flasche für besondere Anlässe von!"

    "Complex nose with esters. Overripe pineapple, glue, vegetal and a hint of lactic fermentation. The palate is lively but not aggressive, as the aromas immediately fill it out. A buttery edge also softens this rather intense rum. The finish is long, and it's the fruit that lingers longest, with a pleasant sweetness, like milk chocolate. Magnificent finish! I much prefer it to its brother RX10861."

    "Oh ja, was für ein feiner Tropfen. Steht seinem Schwesternfass in nichts nach. Könnte mich jetzt wirklich nicht entscheiden, welcher von beiden wirklich besser ist. Zwei Topp Abfüllungen von The Duchess. Das Fass #6 und #18 von 2007 super Wahl."

    "Deutlich würziger als die Schwesterversion mit 66,1%. Interessanterweise ist wirklich ein Unterschied festzustellen. Dennoch ein toller Hampden mit anderer Ausrichtung. Super PLV und Flaschendesign."
