    Another old tasting where I noted that the ABV should have been higher because it was a really light profile. Fruity with nice spices and an oily palate. Have a note that the empty glass had nutty flavours.

    Tasted just after a rather inexpressive plantation barbade, this one puts the beauty back in the heart! A touch of pastry butter that's a pleasure. A big dose of spice on the long finish, while remaining pleasant. A joy to forget a complicated weekend. I could be more generous on the note, but I'm reserved because a hint of alcohol stands out and slightly unbalances the palate.
