    "Compared to the other releases from the Chairman's reserve I'd say this one is more refined and complex in the taste. A wonderful funky nose transcending into a wonderful complex palate with a spicy entry and a fruity touch to the end. The finish is long, deep and has complexity to it. This is a blend of 7.5 years John Dore, 7 years Vendome, 5.5 years Coffey RR104 and a 5 years John Dore. "

    "This rum comes from 4 different distillates that vary in age from 5 to 8 years all aged in ex bourbon barrels. Most of rum is molasses based and comes from column stills, but there are also some pot still rum of which a little part is cane juice based. Overall I must say that it’s a very good rum with rather high complexity."

    "Crass, what you get here for your money! Complex nose with lots of fruit, esters, smoky, herbal, spicy, brown sugar, honey. In the mouth it continues just as well. For 43%, the rum is really intense. What a shame that typical beginner rums are more expensive than this one, but not as good."

    "Tasted at Rhum Fest 2023. I'm not a big fan of Szinte Lucie rums and didn't find this one of much interest. Vanilla, woody. Slightly fruity too. Fairly homogeneous. The palate is in line with the nose."
