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.
Color: Reddish umber Aroma: Sweet of raisins, prunes and cocoa. Not very intense, chocolaty. Taste: Sweet with lots of chocolate. Then spicy with time. Fruity (plum) and mild. Finish: Medium length Dry and woody, herbal and spicy with dark chocolate. 88 points
On ne peut donner plus pour moi sachant son prix stratosphérique et son degré assez faible. Bel équilibre avec le chêne la réglisse et la cerise
Manque un peu de peps, je m'attendais à qqch de mieux pour le prix.
