Unfortunately I don't know the predecessor to make a comparison. All in all, a nice blend. But unfortunately nothing extraordinary that knocks me off my feet. In my opinion, it fits into the easy sipper category.
Auto-translatedNice Jamaican blend. I prefer the nose over the palate as it is more vibrant and funky. Nevertheless well balanced on the palate with fruits, wood, vanilla, cookie dough and milk chocolate.
A solid and beautiful Jamaica blend. Unfortunately, however, not on the level of the Ester Delight I. For 135€ priced for 2023 okay, but not outstanding.
Auto-translateda blend of five Jamaican distilleries: it should be HD, Clarendon, LP, NY and St. Catherine. The first Esters Delight I do not know, unfortunately. I definitely like this one quite a bit, though. Fermented fruit and cookie dough on the nose. The longer I smell, the more I can detect: orange zest, a slightly mentholated note, and vinegrette. Pleasantly mild on the palate, with fermented fruit, spicy, chocolaty, mocha. Successful blend!
