    Ein sehr guter Grays, muss ich zugeben. Nachdem Gunnar immer wieder auf dieses Land hingewiesen hat und ziemlich "penedrant" 😉 darauf verwiesen hat, muss ich gestehen dass es durch aus seinen Reiz hat. Für mich eine sehr gelungene Abfüllung. Danke an Alex_K. Für den Split.

    Why didn't I know this rum before? It's really fun! Of course, I couldn't resist comparing it with the already very good 13-year-old from CdI from 2009 (Perola, the one with the Armagnac finish, RX12864). And what can I say? The 14-year-old is simply more drinkable, rounder, fruitier, less alcoholic, in short: more pleasing. And more "typical Mauritius" (keyword "red and yellow berries"). Not much, but still noticeable. Incidentally, it cannot conceal its presumed relationship to the outstanding 2008 New Grove from 20 Vin (RX13081). Many thanks, Alex Kunath, for the sample. Excellent bottling! Where can I get another bottle of this stuff now?

    Wieder ein toller Grays. Im direkten Vergleich zum Joey Star von old brothers ist dieser hier im Antritt wesentlich süßer, hat am Gaumen etwas mehr Holz und weniger tropische Früchte. Was beim Old brothers der Pfirsisch darstellt, stellen hier karamelisierte rote Früchte dar. Ebenfalls in einem Holzkorb, der hier jedoch wesentöich älter ist. Grays ist klasse. Gunnar hat es schon lange erkannt =D Danke für das Sample an Alex K.

    Grundsätzlich Mal wieder ein guter l, leckerer Mauritius Rum von CDI. Ungewöhnlich viel Holz im Vergleich zu bisherigen Abfüllungen, die typische Menthol und Grapefruit/rote Beeren Note ist vorhanden aber nicht so ausgeprägt wie ich es kenne. Insgesamt eher trocken, schokoladig und ledrig würzig. Gut trinkbar aber haut mich auch nicht um. Da gibt's bessere Mauritius single casks mMn. Irgendwie würde ich hier auch ein Port-Finish vermuten, bin aber nicht sicher...
