    "Wow! A great, complex, fruity rhum! On the palate a mixture of Long Pond, Hampden and fruity white Agricole!"

    "Blind tasting. Had guessed LP. 🙈 At the Velier tasting on the 11th GRF I found him not good at all, but now already much better.Update 2022-10-10:Once again had in the glass, now of course with the knowledge of which rum it is. And again as with our very first encounter on the GRF the rum does not turn me on. Is just too sour for me.glass not finished. 🤷‍♂️"

    "Auf dem letzten Rum-Festival für sehr gut befunden und gekauft (wir durften ihn selbst labeln 🙂)! Heute die Flasche geöffnet und ich muss sagen, dass ich immer noch begeistert bin.. sehr süffig und herrlich rund, für mich eine der besten Casimir-Abfüllungen !"

    "This one was part of the VIP tasting at the German Rum Fest and I went straight to the booth and bought one as soon as the tasting was over. An extremely fresh Agricole well rounded and fruity with all those lovely Agricole notes. Price to quality is very good. The coolest thing was that we got to label the bottle ourselves 😊"
