    Round Neisson with a fairly typical profile. Beautiful nougat sweetness, some wood, plus some youthful freshness. Pleasant and elegant.

    Good rum. It stops there. I found it young, lively, vegetal. Basically it's good, there's the potential to become a great rum but today it's just good. At around 200€ a keel, I'd definitely go for an XO, because it's expensive for what it is...

    Je ne note ici que le jus, et sans regarder le prix. Pour moi c’est un vieux très rond avec quelques fruits et notamment un petit noyau de cerise, mais qu’à l’aveugle je ne donnerai pas à plus de 70€ la bouteille. À 200€ ça n’a aucun sens !
