"Clean Agricole that is fresh and fruity with a lot of nice spices and only a hint of barrel. I recommend letting it rest for at least 15 minutes before giving it a go."

"Exquisiter Agricole. Viel Geschmack. Parfum, frisch und schräge Assoziationen von Kellerabteil und Blauschimmelkäse (Nase) 🤔. Zugänglich und dennoch Charakter. Nur der Abgang ist leicht zu kurz. Mir gefällt er."

"Ja, floral und holzig. Und wirklich mild. Nix Besonderes. Aber jetzt der Clou: Habe mir versehentlich etwas von dem Rhum über die Hand gegossen und danach eindeutig Aprikosenkonfitüre auf der Haut gerochen. Einfach nur lecker - und mir 3 Pluspunkte wert."

"Zweite Verkostung: unverändert gut aber ich habe 2 Punkte abgezogen, will er im Vergleich mit der Version in Fassstärke doch deutlich blasser wirkt. Ein kräftiger, würziger Agricole Rum. Gefällt mir gut obwohl dieser Stil nicht mein Liebling ist. Wahnsinnig langer Abgang, der Ewigkeiten am Gaumen bleibt!"
