"#4117 I'd say this one is a bit disappointing because the other releases were pretty good on average. Naturally sweet with fruit and light roasted wood and lightly dry on the palate. Draws nice curtains and the empty glass is nice with stronger chocolate and a very light smoky note."
"Puh, das ist nun so gar nicht meins. Meines Erachtens viel zu jung abgefüllt, recht ruppiger Alkohol, dahinter mit viel Süsse, die kaum Platz für ein echtes Profil lässt. Hat leider zu viel Anflug von Neutralalkohol für mich. Schade, aber es gibt glücklicherweise deutlich bessere Abfüllungen aus Mauritius."
"Sowas muss nicht extra abgefüllt werden. Besserer Neutralalkohol. Sehr entäuschend."
"Too much alcohol in the profile, beginning from the nose to the mouth. A bit of vanilla on the nose and some wood in the mouth are the only taste that have been able to emerge from alcohol. A very disappointing pick from a bottler with usually high standards"
