"07.12.2023 retasting and it lost some points. Very sweet release. ----------------- This rum is a blend of solera rums where one set is aged up to 40 years and the other for up to 21 years. All aging has been done in Europe so a very controlled aging process. This is another of those rums where people can agree to disagree. A sweet rum that is pretty well balanced. The price tag is a bit high compared to what you get."

"Likely my favorite from this company, and the one that made me want to try to further my taste-buds into the rum world. Managed to get one of 6000 bottles, before the prices got crazy. It has a distinct sweetness in the nose, and citrus, winegum and hints of leather in the notes. Today, this would not classify as rum. Edit: the score is still the same in 2024, even though I'm more into higher ABV% spirits"

"If this one wouldn't be so f#£_@ng expensive I would say it is the best of riise and I would buy it every time the well goes dry. What a shame. Absolutely ridiculous price tag. Coconut is most prominent all over. Great sweet ,,rum,,."
