    "Had a retaste and this time I had the right cigar to go with it and wow what a difference, this is truly a mix well worth a try even though the cigar is slightly expensive and hard to get. Just decided to crack open this wonderful bottle and I regret not having a Cohiba Piramides to go with it. I know it was made to match the Cohiba Siglo VI, but that is too heavy a cigar for me :-) A cooperation between master blender Asbel Morales and cigar sommelier Fernando Fernández and they made something out of this world. A wonderful deep and elegant masterpiece that has a long, warm and elegant balanced finish. A rum worthy of the price tag and then some!"

    "A truly fantastic and elegant rum, but overpriced as most of the Havana Club rums."

    "Tasted as part of Whisky, Rum and Gin festival in Bordershoppen back in 2018, where we helped empty the bottle. Very intense in the nose, and with notes of dried fruit, vanilla and the subtle sensation of tobacco, I can see why it would pair well with a cigar"

    "brutal much raisin & tobacco on the nose. Tastefully strong & elegant, but personally a bit too much tobacco and leather overall. PLV is also for me not in proportion..."
