"RumX-Kalender 17: WOW: was für ein klasse Rum… eine ungewöhnliche zarte florale-fruchtige Nase, der Gaumen ist komplex, fruchtig, mit Vanille , röstig, karamellisiert und Kaffee! Der Abgang ist mittellang und cremig… Absolut Top Re-Tasting bei Dr. Django: Dieser Courcelles ist wirklich grandios und von den Aromen her schon etwas Besonderes. Davon hätte ich auch gerne eine Flasche"

"Exquisite, yellow fruits meet noble spicy notes and honey sweetness. The wood is not perceptible in any form unpleasant, despite the high age, on the contrary - the balance is almost perfect. Great bottling."

"A rum still in stock in Switzerland. Remarkably sweet on the nose, despite the 54%, with amarena cherry, roasted notes, vegetal and floral notes, and marzipan. Very smooth on the palate, as if this rum (which is not an agricole) was made at 40%! Balanced and elegant, with deep fruit and floral aromas. Morello cherry galore and a taste of dark chocolate. A remarkably well-balanced, delicious rum! The empty glass is still very rich in flavors around red fruits with lots of cherry 🍒 Compared to the 2022 version, it's more direct and less mysterious. There's no tar on the nose to complicate the aromatics, and the palate has a citrus edge that the 2022 version doesn't have."

"Intensiv, perfekte Balance, vielschichtig, lang anhaltender Abgang. Was ganz geiles! Exquisite! Französische Rums haben teilweise eine Eleganz, die seinesgleichen sucht."
