    "I wouldn't say this is a watered down rum, but it's extremely well balanced and well rounded and in a tasting this should take spot one. Fruity and nice wood well balanced with spices. The alcohol is barely noticed."

    "Tolle Komplexität. Wie für die Flibuste-Abfüllungen üblich mit satter Süsse voller Vanillezucker, Schokolade und Haelnuss. Dazu pointierte Würzaromatik, Holzeinfluss, opulente Fruchtnoten von Kirsche und Trockenfrüchten; ein toller Kompott vielschichtiger, dennoch stimmiger Geschmacksbilder, das ausgesprochen viel Süffigkeit aufweist. Lecker!"

    "향 : 풀향, 건초향, 가죽, 고무가 강하다. 알콜부즈가 없다. 풀향에 코가 절여지면 두번째 잔에 핵과류중에 매실의 새콤함이 느껴진다. 풋과일 달인 느낌. 복잡하다. 에스테르가 미세한데, 풀향이 이것을 압도한다. 40도 도수가 믿겨지지 않게 두터운 향이 폭발한다. 맛 : 건초, 풀, 가죽등 향에서와 동일하게 느껴진다. 복잡하면서도 깔끔하고 정갈하다. 강렬함이 부족한 점을 제외하면 밸런스가 좋다. 아주 약간 달콤하다. 펑크의 향연이 이어진다. 오크는 다른 향에 묻혀있고 약간의 묵힌 청포도가 느껴진다. 같이 마신 친구는 푸룬주스 향을 느꼈다. 목넘김 : 매우 부드럽고, 마치 알콜이 없는 것처럼 느껴진다. 열대과일이 끝에서야 비로소 느껴진다. 풍미는 향, 맛과 일치하고, 목넘김까지 깔끔하게 이어진다. 풀향의 피니시는 매우 길다. 드라이하나 탄닌감이 안느껴지고 침이고이며 달큰한 뉘앙스가 이어진다."
