    "This is the first solid element in the range. It's true that I'm not a big fan of old Reunionese, but this is a fine marriage of wood, fruit, menthol and apple, and I really enjoyed this bottle."

    "Tasting on a campside in the south of French Nose: pretty classical balanced traditional Savannah. Agricolish. Yellow fruits. Mild wood. Cognac. Vanilla. Bit of glue. Good. Taste: starts great too. Honey sweetness. Dry. Sugarcane. Something floral, chamomille. And something I recognise but can't put my finger on. Still delicious. The 43% is perfect...but hey first dram of the day. Twas 35°C today. All in all a very likable rum from reunion. Complex enough to outshine most in this category."
