8.2/10

Bílé rumy mě nepřestanou překvapovat. Začalo to long pondem od habitation velieru a pokračuje to tady. Krasně kulatá smetaná vůně s nádechem kanagonu. Po napití se dostaví exploze chutí která rozvibruje celá ústa a dlouze dlouze odchazí. Paráda

The name says it all. High Ester. For me, a little over here but that is a matter of taste.

7.1/10

Vôňa je výrazná, nie celkom príjemná. Cítiť smotanu, kešu, korenie, technické vône, šampiňóny v kyslo-slanom náleve, čierne olivy. Chuť je extrémne šťavnatá, ovocná, trochu sladkastá. Je to riadne silná esterová bomba.
