    For its young age an excellent rum... it offers everything you expect from a Jamaican with this mark! Top!!

    Farbe: Blassgold Geruch: Sehr lecker, fruchtig und süß. Nach dem eingießen füllen sofort fruchtige Ester den Raum, vor allem Ananas-Aromen. Sehr intensiv - Ester ohne Ende - und zwar sowohl Frucht- (Ananas, Birne, Quitten, ein Hauch Banane) als auch Lösungsmittel-Ester. Zudem etwas geschlagene süße Sahne. Muss längere Zeit stehen und öffnet sich dann immer mehr. Geschmack: Sehr lecker, fruchtig und würzig. Zunächst süß und fruchtig im Mund. Dann folgt eine Geschmacks-Explosion beim Schlucken. Dabei nehme ich sehr viel Ananas und Birnen war. Süßlich, wird in der zweiten Geschmacks-Welle dann auch sehr würzig. Abgang: Sehr lang und wärmend, dabei immer noch sehr fruchtig, aber auch würzig. Wird dann zunehmend trocken-staubig. Der Nachgeschmack ist trocken-fruchtig. Fazit: Ein wirklich sehr leckerer und typisch funky Jamaica Rum. Jung, wild und ungezähmt. Von dem PX-Sherry Cask habe ich ausser einer leichten Färbung ehrlich gesagt nichts gemerkt. Die PX-Sherry-Aromen sind in der Flut von Ester-Aromen komplett untergegangen. 88 Punkte

    Only the second time I’ve tasted a DOK as far as I know. Not for beginners, that’s for sure. A lot of acidic and chemical notes from start to finish (nail polish, aceton, etc.). The dry but still smooth sensation in the finish is something special. I do like it though.

    Eine Ester Bombe wie aus dem Bilderbuch. Am besten alleine oder am Ende eines Tasting da der (sehr gute) Nachgeschmack sehr lange anhält und alles nachfolgende überlagert. Was auch super gut funktioniert ist es z.B. einen Mai Tai mit etwas milderem Rum mit 1 cl von diesem hier aufzuwerten.
