    "Teil 4/8 unseres 1986er Rockley Tastings: wow! unglaublich intensiv sowohl an der Nase als auch im Geschmack! richtig schön dick, cremig und ölig. Papaya trifft Minze, trifft Piment trifft Banane und zum Schluss kumquatmarmelade mit frischem Vanillemark. geile Nummer! unglaublich smooth und dennoch komplex genug und nicht so schnell weg wie sonst oft bei Trinkstärke. in kurz: die beste Rockley 86 Trinkstärke!🤤🇧🇧"

    "Ich bin ja nicht so der große Barbados-Rumfan, aber dieser Rockley holt mich mal wieder ab. Diese rauchig harzige Honignote mit einem Duft von Akazienholz ist schon sehr besonders und einzigartig. Der geringe ABV fällt hier kaum auf. Hervorragend, wenn nicht der Abgang relativ kurz wäre. Dieses kostet ihm leider ein paar Punkte"

    "Sehr schöne Rockley-Nase mit getrockneten Kräutern, ätherischem Öl und Bienenwabe. Am Gaumen Harz, Honig, würzig-pfeffrig. Altes Fass im Abgang Der niedrige ABV isr hier gar nicht störend. Besten Dank an Josip für das Sample!"

    "Beeindruckend, wie das Rockley-Profil hier bei „nur“ 46% abliefert. Etwas runder und süsser als das 15-jährige Release. Honig, tropische Früchte, Holzaromen, Vanille, Rauch. Ein weiterer Beleg dafür, was Cadenheads damals für grossartige Rums abgefüllt hat."
