"Still quite restrained on the nose. Like a hill on the palate: a strong, bitter start, a fruity, spicy zenith and a lemony, marzipan finish. Surprisingly complex. Very pleasing."

"Geruch: Fruchtig süß ... riecht nach tropischen Früchte (Papaya, Mango) und Trockenfrüchten (Aprikose), zudem Mirabelle. Weiterhin Aromen von Karamell, Vanille und Zuckerrohr. Geschmack: Fruchtig süß mit Vanille im Mund, wird mit der Zeit leicht würzig. Beim Schlucken würzig mit Sandelholz-Aromen und Schuhcreme. Fruchtige Komponenten von Aprikose und Papaya. Abgang: Lang, trocken und würzig mit Aromen von Leder und Trockenfrüchten (Aprikose). Fazit: Ein toller Rum - sehr fruchtig und lecker. Laut Etikett: Blend of 2007 Blend, 2005 Blend, Acacia Finish, Chataigner Finish, Porto Finish, 1969"
