Oh, this is hard! Oh, I'll just make it easy for myself today, even though I'm setting the highest mark so far at this point: In direct comparison with the 2005 from GotA.

on par with the very good 2005 Chairmans Reserve bottlings. What I particularly like about the Kirsch is the balance, almost dangerously drinkable. And the price-performance ratio is simply top!

This is a very nice release. ABV has been integrated very well and I like the roasted/smoky wood because it's not dominating the profile. Light fruit with nice spices and some leather. Beautiful curtains in the glass and the empty glass has wonderful flavours. Very long finish with nice wood.

The nose starts very surprising for me with esters and tropical fruits. Reminds me more of Jamaica!This continues on the palate, great thing! Jamaica funk with St Lucia spice! I like it very much.The alcohol is very well integrated.The only criticism I find would be "only" medium complexity.Wow, at the very end, after about 2 minutes I have the impression of wheat beer!Great stuff, great price!

On the nose a lot of yellow fruit, berries and fig. Sweet aromas of caramel and vanilla. In the hunter background light notes of smoke and barrel. On the palate this is continued. Finishes with leather and light earth. With the Chairman Kirsch has provided a great rum at a good price.

In the nose a little more than the Antipodes LMDW. On the palate, very similar, speak neat spice and slightly peppery. Top PLV with about 90 euros for 0.7l.

Another very nice Saint Lucia. In direct comparison, the Antipodes is a bit "brighter" and more complex, with more rough edges, the Kirsch more mature, darker, smoother with better integrated alcohol, but also a bit less exciting. Both great bottlings, but with the price difference, the victory clearly goes to the Kirsch.

Again, very complex and very tasty!

On the nose wood and peaty notes like whiskey. At the beginning clearly medicinal (after)taste. With time, everything becomes rounder.
