“Spannendes Fiji-Profil mit breitem aromatischem Spektrum - der Alkohol ist nicht ganz perfekt integriert, aber die geschmackliche Vielfalt wiegt hier vieles auf. Für Liebhaber des Fiji-Profils durchaus eine Alternative zum 2001er Jahrgang, auch wenn hier durchaus wneiger Ecken und Kanten im Spiel sind.”

“Ich stehe voll auf Fiji. So viel ist schon mal klar. Nase: herrliche Mischung aus Limette, salzigem Honig, feine Klebstoff-Noten, Bleistiftspähne und Feinmechaniker-Öl. Geht noch etwas mehr Richtung Kumquat und bekommt dann noch einen Twist Richtung Joghurt. Total lecker. 9,0 Gaumen: hier fehlen leider die leichten, lieblichen Aromen, vielmehr ist er bitter-salzig zu Beginn, hat ordentlich Limettenschale und eher grobe, geröstete Nüsse mit Gummi, Muskat und Kümmel. 7,6 Während mich die Nase sehr überzeugt, bleibt er am Gaumen weit dahinter. Schade eigentlich.”
