“Keksteig (erinnert an Neisson), Politur und Weichseln beim einen Schwenker. Pflanzliche Noten und Würze beim nächsten. Mandeln. Eine komplexe, vielschichtige Nase. Sehr schön. Kräftig. Im Mund packt er dann ordentlich zu. Warm, würzig, Keksteig und dann wärmt er aus dem Magen nochmal ordentlich rauf. 🔥🔥🔥 Super Agricole!!😊😊😊Vielen Dsnk nach Bonn für das tolle Sample!”

“Delicious fruity spicy nose with red fruits nutmeg... Slightly peppery. On the palate very floral floral peppery ... some orange and red berries ... In the finish then somewhat bitter dry. For me, the taste doesn't quite deliver what the nose promises.”

“Very nicely balanced on the nose with green notes, wood, allspice, apple and a little cherry liqueur. Nutmeg, cedar wood and coffee on the palate. Very good Karukera, and another top rum in the Japoniani series!”
