    This is the older Reserve du Comte Arthur Dillon, 8yo. It’s richer and more complex than the 4yo. In appearance, one distinguishes them by the label. On the 4yo is the Dillon logo written on red background and on the 8yo it’s written on brown background. This 8yo is a remarkable VSOP, which is only challenged by the Depaz 7yo VSOP.

    Rarely a rhum tastes better than it smells. This does that. It’s slightly too alcoholic, but it’s quite well balanced and interesting. Good one!

    De belles couleurs qui rappellent le XO en encore plus gourmand, il est vraiment très bon on sent qu'il est plus jeune que le XO mais il garde une identité et un sérieux tout en étant assez ludique en bouche
