"First time I had a chance to try one of the young 91 KFMs. I‘m a bit shocked. Despite its young age this is very good and pure KFM essence of the vintage. While I expected this to be much lighter than its 30y+ brothers, all of the woodiness, bitterness and tannins are there. Yet a bit less extrem and with a bit more liveliness (dried fruits are great in this) making this an excellent age to be bottled. Very nice."

"Tierisch guter 1991 KFM … wahnsinn, wie geil der trotz des jungen Alters ist. Das ist jetzt mein Liebling dieses Vintages – vor den älteren Bellamy’s un Haubariria. Wer kann : Unbedingt probieren. Geiles Zeug."
"A rum tasted at the GRF in 2024. An incredibly deep, dark nose, old leather, old varnished wood, barrel. The palate entry is lively for such a dark nose, but with sweetness, and the same aromas are present with a light acidity that balances it all out. The finish is long, long, still on the old varnished wood and still with that little acidity without which this rum would be too dark. A GRF 2024 favorite."
