    "Tasted by Marta at the Precious Liquors stand at GRF 2024. The typical characteristics of an LROK are clearly recognizable and it delivers what it should. The alcohol is not perceptible, which is probably due to the low ABV, which prevents it from achieving a higher rating. All in all, however, it is highly drinkable."

    "in the aroma of flambéed bananas with a condom there's a hint of Hampden in the taste, but it's quite clipped"
