"Edit: Three Guadeloupe '98s tested against each other. My ranking today 1. Milano Rum Fest 2. the Rum Cask 3. Colours of Rum In contrast to the Colors of Rum I've had so far, this is definitely a step up. Balanced and drinkable, I'll be adding another bottle for myself."

"This is a very tate bottle and I was lucky that my friend sampled a bottle. The nose is very well balanced with banana, wood, licorice olives and light menthol. The palate is complex and well balanced with overripe bananas, olive, licorice, sugarcane as well as salty with very light wood. The finish is very long and warm with banana and licorice."

"Cross-tasting with the TRC Anniversary and Kill Devil. All three need a lot of time in the glass. Alcohol is very well integrated in all of them, The Milano is my favorite. Its creaminess and the aromas of caramel, nut and chocolate convince me the most. Some fruit also joins in later, the TRC and Kill Devil are on a par, with the TRC being the fruity one."
