Review by Tafia Guildive
Disturbing note of burnt plastic
Review by Michael Turner
Could be a good St. Lucia if it weren't for the dilution. It has fruit and medicine, plus a certain length, but unfortunately still a certain spiciness/alcohol-heavy character.
Review by Johannes
A very good Lucia in terms of taste! Unfortunately, the dilution has a negative effect.
Review by bossi
A similarity in the nose to the two comparison candidates Blackadder St. Lucia 1999 and Renegade St. Lucia cannot be denied. However, the CDI is further away from the two bottlings than the two '99 bottlings themselves are from each other - which was to be expected (1999 <=> 2002). Less leather, tobacco and fruit, but a lot more glue and still reminiscent of Bellevue '98. Herbs, fresh sugar cane and honey can also be found on the palate. But what stands out the most in comparison is salt. Yes, the rum tastes a little salty and unfortunately there is no fruit to be found. The finish is medium to short and the sugar cane, herbs and oak can also be found here. Definitely the weakest candidate in this series. Are the weaknesses due to the strong dilution? I can't say for sure, but it certainly plays a role. 76 points
