“WOW! with the best will in the world, i could not have imagined that rum at 83% could be so mild and harmonious without dilution and barrel ageing. the great white shark from fiji🦈 is unexpectedly mild and complex. papaya, pineapple, nail polish, a little ginger and rose on the nose, then papaya, mocha, dark chocolate, a little metallic and really very harmonious and round with a slight overripe fruit sweetness. the finish is warm, strong coffee dusted with cocoa and papaya again. daiquiri with it borders on technical knockout but is absolutely delicious. great cinema! top! ⚡🦈🤤🇫🇯 Fiji in its purest form with the typical notes of bicycle inner tube, strong mocha, papaya and burnt notes... Still one of my absolute benchmark white overproof in terms of complexity and alcohol integration...”

“First thought: 83% must be inseparable. On the palate then comes a flavor explosion that has incredible steam, but still transports great aromatics. Madness!”

“Ruft die Feuerwehr, jemand hat den Gaumen angezündet! 83% vol., das ist mal ein Teufelzeug! Für mich als Fiji-Fan eigentlich schon lange mal Pflicht, aber tatsächlich gibt es bis auf wenige Einhörner quasi keinen umgelagerten Rum von den Trauminseln. Zeigt sich in der Nase erstmal gar nicht so besonders, könnte auch ein junger, gelagerter Fiji sein. Allerdings ganz klar hochprozentig, hui! Hängt man die Nase zu tief ins Glas, wird man schnell dafür bestraft! Auch am Gaumen: Vorsicht ist die Mutter der Porzellankiste. Der geht selbst für geübte Gaumen nur in kleinen Schlücken. Diese reichen aber auch vollkommen aus, fluten den gesamten Mundraum und liefern Zitrusfrüchte, Plastik, vielleicht sogar etwas Honig. Nichts für jeden tag, aber muss man probiert haben! Krass!”
