    "Retasting with the RumX guys. --------- This is another rum from heaven and a typical Jamaica style rum. If you like Silver Seal rum you're considered a rum nerd 😉 This bottle is hard to get your hands on and if you're offered a sampler then you should have a go."

    "Tasted at the Catawiki booth at the 1st German Armagnac Festival ... the bottle was open 2 weeks and quite Aromatic. Rather in the low ester range but very fruity, with lots of buttery pineapple on the nose. Palate again fruity with butter and pineapple ... also full-bodied delicious with green banana and allspice. Some (good) wood bitterness and also iodine licorice-like hints with wax round things out. Tasted very good to me."

    "Verkostet am Catawiki Stand beim 1. Deutschen Armagnac Festival mit Serge. Trotz des niedrigen ABV sehr gut gelungen. Schöner ausgeprägter und intensiver Geschmack. Eine wahre Rarität. Bin froh diesen verkosten zu können."
