    "Strong DOK !!! Hampden par excellence ... Strong ester nose paired with a delicious fruit body alcohol sticks in view of the 64.5% hardly in the nose ... On the palate you notice the alcohol a little more but never disturbing quite the opposite he brings the HD gene in its most beautiful form (pineapple, mango, honey and a portion of UHU) in the mouth ... simply brilliant !!! For me personally one of the best DOK bottlings of all time."

    "💥🤯🥃The relationship to the LoM is clearly recognizable. However, the additional aging gives the DOK a nice boost of complexity and "balance". A real explosion of flavor. Wow, the rum is really fun!Compared to the CDI DOK a little rounder and more barrel influence. Perfectly integrated alcohol."

    "Since the early rise was worth it I love this funk of high ester! And if they then come along as smooth as in this bottling ... then everything is perfect 🤩! This DOK is just fun to drink ..."

    "Very good DOK and what concerns the older DOKs probably the best to date. Alcohol is top integrated, taste the fruit notes are unfortunately somewhat lost for a lot of funk and spice. Almost already slightly fleshy bacon-like impression in part. Overall, a really good DOK, but I still prefer the younger bottlings."
