    "Un rhum que j’ai eu la chance de dĂ©guster Ă  l’aveugle et j’ai pariĂ© sur un blend Demerara, Caroni et un peu de JamaĂŻque pour la vivacitĂ©. Et donc un flagon de la marine britannique. Un nez de mĂ©lasse avec des fruits et des esters. De la douceur en contraste avec un cĂŽtĂ© vif, pas mal d’alcool aussi. De la vieille corde, du pruneau, du vieux bois et des fruits jaunes. La bouche attaque tout en douceur, en contraste avec un nez vif. Puis les arĂŽmes sombres envahissent la bouche et seulement alors le cĂŽtĂ© vif rĂ©apparaĂźt. Tout s’accorde en finale, comme si ce rhum avait Ă©tĂ© blendĂ© Ă  la perfection. Une finale extrĂȘmement longue et entĂȘtante, mais aussi Ă©lĂ©gante et complexe. Ce rhum raconte une histoire d’hĂ©ritier, noceur et dĂ©pravĂ©. Aujourd’hui seul dans son chĂąteau dĂ©labrĂ© avec de beaux restes."

    "This is a really punchy 96, well given the abv, probably no wonder. typical fruit and dirt, but also some lovley diesel and mechanics workshop. Some rotten fruit come to the palate and then finishes long and fruity. Straightforward 96 goodness..."
