    A very fine Mauritian rum that is a great fruit compote with perfectly integrated alcohol and a pleasant woodiness.

    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

    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.

    Rhum extrêmement agréable et facile à boire. Au nez comme en bouche, dominante de fruits avec notamment la pêche jaune et les abricots, contrebalancé par des épices légèrement piquantes. Petite amertume en fin de bouche, avec une légère trame boisée. Finale moyenne, très fruitée, un peu poivrée, qui se termine sur un abricot un peu vanillé et rappelle le premier nez. Très bon rapport qualité prix.
