    "Geiler scheiß. Sehr kräftig und intensiv, das Cognac Fass ist an keiner Stelle zu dominant macht das ganze aber schon auch sehr trocken, pelzig und adstringierend. Die intensiven bitteren Noten von Grapefruitschale, Bitterorange, sowie Eukalyptus Tee und Menthol Mundspülung sowie eine leichte Sauerkirsch Hals Bonbon sind einfach der Hammer und außergewöhnlich. Sehr abgefahrenes Mundgefühl! Definitiv imho mein persönlicher Benchmark Rum wenn's um Mauritius generell und die Grays Destillerie geht!"

    "I do not know so many rums from Grays, but I would call this one rather atypical. I had this rum as a blind sample and have typed on tdl vintage 2001-2003 because of the mint note. Usually Grays has more of an orange note. Therefore somewhat atypical, but in any case very good and exciting."

    "Absolut positive Überraschung, hier passiert richtig was im Glas. Eine sehr schöne frische Minznote, dunkle Früchte, hinten raus etwas ungestüm. Trotzdem: Auf dem Preisniveau gibt es nur noch wenig vergleichbare Qualität."
