Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Tasting on a campside in the south of French Nose: pretty classical balanced traditional Savannah. Agricolish. Yellow fruits. Mild wood. Cognac. Vanilla. Bit of glue. Good. Taste: starts great too. Honey sweetness. Dry. Sugarcane. Something floral, chamomille. And something I recognise but can't put my finger on. Still delicious. The 43% is perfect...but hey first dram of the day. Twas 35°C today. All in all a very likable rum from reunion. Complex enough to outshine most in this category.
Review by Fabrice Rouanet
Rhum moyen avec un nez très marqué sur le produit solvant ou colle en bâton. Peu d’arôme mis tertiaires en bouche. Assez déçu pour un vieillissement de 7 ans.

We had a great tasting today and here are the results.
Review by Madame 888
Eleganter Rum, 7 Jahre, aus la reunion, etwas holzig und würzig mit Trockenpflaume Note. Sehr langer komplexer Abgang mit einer leichten Rauch Note
Review by TheJackDrop
This is the first solid element in the range. It's true that I'm not a big fan of old Reunionese, but this is a fine marriage of wood, fruit, menthol and apple, and I really enjoyed this bottle.

Docela pitelna sava s ovocnosti a jablky az strudlem. Ale sucha
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
zu dünn aufgrund der Verwässerung und seltsam scharf, holzig und alkoholisch noch dazu... nicht unbedingt meins.
