    Super Nase! Dunkel aber nicht modrig mit herrlicher Melange aus Fruchtkomponenten, Leder, Fass, Malz, Zitrus und Gewürzen. An Gaumen dann – den 46 % entsprechend – etwas dünn. Aber wirklich noch gut im Rahmen und lecker.

    Wow, richtig guter Versailles mit erstaunlich viel Tiefgang. Holz, Bitterkeit, Frucht ist perfekt ausbalanciert. Trotz der Verdünnung wirkt er überhaupt nicht dünn, auch wenn er gerne noch ein paar Prozente mehr vertragen könnte.

    05.03.2016 Finally back in Kolding again after some years at Messe C in Fredericia. Much easier to get home when it's within walking distance. Had my good friend from Singapore visit for a month and that ended up in a lot of tasting 😊 Notes: Nose: wood, roasted, plum, anise, citrus, leather. Palate : wood, light roasted, plum, anise, licorice. Finish: medium long, wood, licorice, dried fruit, tobacco.

    Schwerer alter Demerara. Holt mich aber nicht vollends ab, auch wenn der Rum eine hohe Qualität hat. Ist mir fast zu alkoholisch, obwohl er so dünn daherkommt.
