    "This rum is really nice and I just had to go for seconds. The nose is well balanced with a mixture of grass, vanilla, fruits and a mixture of wood. The palate is balanced and complex with spices, fruit and flowery/Agricole touch to it. Chocolate and wood finishes the experience. The finish is medium long primarily cinnamon and tobacco with a bit of candy and grass to it. "

    "Smells mega delicious, a bit like a Guyana rum, but with a lot of Agricole, especially apple or pear like J.M or Depaz. Not the typical earthy and leathery Agricole, but more caramel, sugar cane, fruit and chocolate and overall very complex. Alone what fruits you can discover all! In the mouth then very sharp, dry and spicy, which unfortunately does not meet my taste. Overall, nevertheless, a very good rum."

    "Beau profil gourmand avec de la vivacité, une certaine intensité et un côté pimenté. Ça lui donne une énergie qui le rend assez remarquable. Le rapport qualité prix est aussi très intéressant. Peut être le meilleur damoiseau à un tarif accessible."
