    "Un nez époustouflant et incroyablement complexe. Caramel amer, pâtisseries, bananes, agrumes et herbes en arrière-plan. L’entrée de bouche est douce et fruitée, ananas, carambole, poire etc. Le côté caramel amer du nez passe à l’arrière-plan. La finale est hélas le point un peu plus faible de ce magnifique rhum, elle est plutôt courte et surtout centrée sur l’amertume et le bois léger. Un côté fumé apparaît dans le verre vide avec un peu de bois. Les fruits sont discrets. Merci Mirko pour le sample. En comparaison directe avec le “Roots”, celui-ci me semble tout aussi équilibré mais, par contre, il manque ici quelques watts et de la complexité."

    "Prima Abfüllung, hier vermag Bellevue überzeugen. Der Rum braucht jedoch etwas Zeit um sich zu öffnen. Danach wird man mit vielen schönen Zitrus, Holz und frischen Gras Noten verwöhnt. Toll, gefällt mir sehr gut."

    "#4514 07.12.2023 This is a very good rum in my mind especially when looking at the price tag. Once rested the nose is well rounded and fruity with a sweet touch. The palate is oily and fruity with a touch of licorice. The finish is long and warm with dried fruit and clove. Draws beautiful curtains in the glass. The empty glass has some cherry and chocolate notes."

    "Zunächst: dieser Rum benötigt viel Zeit im Glas..easy sipping scheidet hier definitiv aus…aber die Geduld wird belohnt.. er bedankt sich sich mit einer ausgeprägten Nase anfangs mit viel Zitrusfrüchten, die dann ins würzige wechseln (salziges Lakritz), Am Gaumen verteilt er sich sofort cremig und geschmeidig mit einer schweren Süße von gebrannten Karamell, dann kommen wieder Gewürze und Zitrusfrüchte . Holz und Tannin gesellen sich dazu. Der Abgang ist lang und intensiv, Eine sehr gute Belellevue-Abfüllung Heute nochmal im Cross-Tasting mit dem Milano Festival und Kill Devil im Glas. Mein Eindruck hat sich bestätigt und die Punktzahl bleibt bestehen"
