    "This rum perfumes the room when poured. Cedar wood (cigar box) dominates the nose, but bergamot and prunes are not far off. A real taste of roast completes this atypical nose. The palate is initially almost entirely woody (cedar), with some prune and dried fruit remaining and a roasted base, like cooled roast fat on the finish. Astonishing! The finish is long and citrus reappears at the very end. Phew! The empty glass is complex and much more balanced than the mouth. A highly aromatic and far from uninteresting rum, but too dominated by a too monolithic expression of wood for my taste."

    "kontinentaler Demerara mit wirklich schönem Versailles Profil : Viel Frucht und intensiver Geschmack auf den typischen Markern trotz geringem ABV. Auch die Bitterkeit ist – im Vergleich zu anderen alten Versailles – sehr zurückhaltend. Gefällt mir sehr gut."

    "Schönes, warmes Demerara-Profil. Sehr ausgewogen. Im Mund dann reichlich Tannin, gute Trinkstärke. Es mag kräftiger, komplexere und aufregendere kontinental gereifte Demeraras geben, aber dieser bringt das Versailles-Geschmacksprofil auf den Punkt und ist dabei sehr süffig."
