    This one is lighter and most delicate of the 2004, 2005 and 2007 Exceptional casks. A very nice rum from the nose through the palate right onto the finish. A lot of orange throughout. A slightly dry rum slightly sweeter than the other two. Really smooth and complex bottle that is already hard to find.

    Ein geiler Rum! Komplex, sehr gut trinkbar. PLV Top! Edit 03/2022: Mittlerweile schon Sammlerpreise. Der Körper ist schlanker als alle bisher verkosteten FSs. Sehr elegant. Neben dem Plenipotenziario mein Lieblings-FS.

    Si vous voulez déguster un rhum qui tapisse votre palais d’une incroyable richesse aromatique, vous serez servi ! magnifique expérience et une fin de bouche magnifique
