    "The Calvados finish is rather disturbing to me; overall an exciting profile with fruit, medicinal and woody notes, but with a bit too present alcohol for my taste."

    "Calvados only adds a minimal extra note. 😊"

    "The Calvados cask influence is clearly recognizable without being too dominant, but also makes the whole very dry, bitter, woody and you can almost taste the pectin of apple peel. The whole thing together with young wood, some cocoa, brine, light chili and salted caramel, olives, glue and lots of spices and subtly smoky... I like it much better when I try it again 1 year later! Nice thing!"

    "02-09.04.2022 This was crazy week, where some friends and I rented a nice summerhouse on Rømø. The plan was to go nuts for a whole week with different rums without going overboard. The final agreement came to 6 rums a day and then enjoy nice walks or ferry rides during the day. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Intense, fresh, light wood, fruits, light nutts, apple, light vegetal. Palate Intense, warm, light wood, fruits, apple, faint workshop, light caramel, light nutts, spice, cinnamon. Finish Long and warm, medium spicy, medium dry, fruits, faint mint, light citrus."
