    Great lychee flavor paired with strong minerality. I like it very much.

    Outstanding! Great complexity with balance between dirty, metallic notes and fruit galore. Lychees, Guava, Honey Melons. Yummee!

    I got this Compagnie des Indes as a comparison to the CDI RX1629. There is a clear winner here and that is this one! Not quite as much mint, to barely, but the dirty workshop top of a Caroni. There must be something about T.D.L putting their stuff in half full Caroni barrels. What a great dirty rum.

    Der macht mal richtig Spaß. Ist die Nase noch recht verhalten mit frischer Minze, etwas Frucht und Holz, passiert am Gaumen richtig was. Anfanhgs eine angenehme Süße mit nachfolgenden Früchten verschiedenster Art und anschließendem klassischen Minz-Eukalyptus Mix. Später gesellen sich noch Gewürze dazu. Der Abgang setzt sich auf der pflanzlichen minzigen Seite fort.. davon gerne mehr
