Review by Rene Wagener
Most helpful positive review
Interesting rum with fruity notes of peach and raisins, accompanied by wood, spices, and hints of Cognac. Quite dry, wood-forward, and slightly bitter when neat. With a bit of water, it becomes noticeably softer, sweeter, and more harmonious. Distinctive character, but for my taste, a bit too wood-heavy when neat.

#4066 I think this one is a bit overpriced thinking about what you get. A sweet and very fruity rum with a spicy/warm palate.
Review by Johannes
Tropical notes, dry, orange, mint. Great intensity for only 40%! A super entry into the Mauritius world!
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Beautiful extension of lazy dodo! Grapefruit, orange peel, mint, slightly bitter orange and herbaceous woody. Not necessarily worth 80€ but tasty.
Review by Portman
I had hoped that it would be significantly more complex and fruity than the standard version. Overall quite good and balanced, but too expensive for the marginal difference.
Review by Viktor Gu
This rum can be confused with scognac )Aroma of vanilla and fruit, floral flavor, and honey, a little vanilla, moderately sweet.
