"Dove back into a retaste of this one and it's still a very good release. Despite the steep price of 1300, - euro I decided to buy this bottle and opened it for a taste after it arrived yesterday. Wow, this is a great rum, though expensive I must say it's almost a perfect rum."

"One of the most mythical and elaborate of all agricultural rums. The nose begins with a micro-pot of solvents, before letting exotic fruits take the lead, followed by sweet notes (toffee, candied notes) and then letting a rather woody, dark and spicy profile establish itself with elegance, finesse and intensity, while leaving the fruitiness (red fruits, dried fruits) present at times. This framework is repeated on the palate with great complexity and subtlety. Oily, creamy, intense, very round and elegant, with notes of chocolate, leather, licorice, coffee, cinnamon and vanilla, and a hint of exotic fruit. The interminable finish continues the dark profile, with notes of tobacco and hazelnut. A legendary and excellent rum."

"Er... Too short in the mouth. Lots of flavor, explosive in the mouth but falls right back and no length. A hint of sweet licorice lingers on the palate."

"Outstanding aroma. Great maturity and complexity! Creamy and intense on the palate despite the 45%. However, the length of the finish is somewhat lacking for even more points. Nevertheless, a real treat!"
