    "Another very nice release, though not fully up to par with the older versions. Very fruity from nose to finish with a touch of spices and oak. I love the smoky finish on this particular release. Price is pretty high but a good rum none the less. "

    "On ne peut donner plus pour moi sachant son prix stratosphĂ©rique et son degrĂ© assez faible. Bel Ă©quilibre avec le chĂȘne la rĂ©glisse et la cerise"
