    A great Damoiseau just a step below the pick from Velier but still amazing. Woody, dried fruits (banana mainly), nuts on the nose, oily and intense in the mouth with great alcohol integration. One of the best rum ever

    Great color Relatively subtle on the nose, like many high-class agricoles. Deep, dark walnut on the palate, almost walnut-like. Opens up more and more over time. Caramel and more syrupy consistency on the finish. Long finish of a great rum.

    Wow, der macht richtig Spaß! Schwer, dunkel und vielschichtig.

    Un profil assez sombre. La bouche est crémeuse, la finale longue et sèche.
