    "Bottle brought back from the Seychelles in 2016. Tasted only today, 6 years later :) On the nose, I'm lost. A scent I can't quite identify fills my nose. I detect the smell of fruit liqueur (prune?), citrus, orange zest, candy? It's fruity, sweet and inviting. On the palate, it's immediately very sweet. Almost liqueur-like. Sensations of caramel and vanilla are very present. The fruit is very present, but I can't identify it. Peppery finish. No length on the palate and no noticeable evolution of the rum over time. Astonishing. Very atypical profile for me. Makes you wonder if the rum has been sweetened and flavored. But that doesn't seem to be the case. Glad to have been able to test it so long afterwards."

    ""Pas ouf, déçu de Takamaka qui m'avait fait une super impression jusque la, mais bon tant pis. En resume, mes notes de degutation : Au nez : Canne à sucre, Alcoolique En bouche : Caramel. et c'est tout."

    "Ein sehr fruchtiger Rum, der mich irgendwie an Melone erinnert. Allerdings auch irgendwie künstlich und sprittig. Auch eine Note von Parfüm oder Seife schmecke ich irgendwie raus. Gar nicht mein Geschmack."
