“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.”

“Cookie dough (reminiscent of Neisson), polish and sour cherries in one swirl. Vegetable notes and spice in the next. Almonds. A complex, multi-layered nose. Very nice. Powerful. It then packs a real punch in the mouth. Warm, spicy, cookie dough and then it warms up again from the stomach. 🔥🔥🔥 Super Agricole!!! 😊😊😊😊Many thanks to Bonn for the great sample!”

“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!”
