Review by Chrischi78
Viel Holz und die erwartete bittere Note. Erwartungsgemäß die dunklen schweren Noten nach Tabak, vieeel Hokz und Leder. Im Abgang dunkle Schokolade und Kakao. Die eigentlich etwas schwachen 45% sind nicht spürbar. Vielen Dank an Rumurmel für dieses tolle Sample
Review by Johannes
Borderline bitterness as usual with the commercial profile. Despite the dilution, the rum doesn't seem thin at all!
Review by Serge
Typisches 91er KFM Profil mit der prominenten Bitterkeit und viel Holz, Leder, Bleistift, Trockenfrüchten und Schokolade. Der hier hat auch noch etwas dunkle Beeren und eine schöne Fruchtigkeit dabei. (Er braucht aber etwas im Glas bis die malzigen Noten fruchtiger werden). Lecker für KFM Liebhaber, aber im Vergleich mit den anderen Vertretern des Jahrgangs deutlich überpreist.
Review by SaibotZtar
Very spicy and woody with lots of bitters. Chocolate dark fruits lots of wood influence, leather pencil. Pleasant sweetness on first contact in the mouth. On the whole, too much bitterness for me.
