"Edit: Verkostet mit FischeJ als Absacker, guter Dok zum guten Preis Verkostet bei Serge am Franconian Tasting Gang goes Tiki. Im Endeffekt hat er alles was man sich von einem DOK erwartet. Aber verglichen mit anderen, die ich mittlerweile im Glas hatte, lässt er ein bißchen Federn. Fazit: Ein guter DOK, aber es gibt weit aus bessere."

"Typical high ester representative, almost somewhat restrained due to the dilution. There is an alcoholic tinge, but thanks to the 57% the overall picture is very solid."

"Solider DOK. Virgin oak ist hier für so eine kurze Reifezeit eine gute Wahl. Rote Früchte, saure Ananas, etwas Karamell, Vanille und Gebäck und junges Holz. Insgesamt Recht sauer- würzig und ausgewogen für so eine kurze Reifezeit."

"Ein sehr leckerer High Ester Rum. Hatte zwar eine kurze Lagerzeit, aber ich mag sowas ja ganz gerne. Hier überwiegt natürlich der Ester, man hat aber auch tropische Früchte in Nase und Gaumen. Preis/Leistung wirklich top."
