Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Very close to the 2000 version, which I like a lot.
Review by Kieron Wood
This is top quality stuff and had I not had reserva exclusiva I would rate this a 10 but I think for half the price it's the same quality rum ... I love this but prefer ed21 at the high end of rum but would but reserva eclusivia for value , two bottles equal 1 of this and it's the same notes ...

Sött och gott. Fina sockertoner. Bra eftersmak!
Review by Filip Šikula
Taaaak sladké. Na nose je velmi výrazné sherry dozrávání, sušené ovoce a karamel. V chuti je to hodně sladké, s výraznou stoupou sherry a datlí. Celé je to zbytečně řídké. Poměr cena/výkon je nesmysl, prostě další SV plnění.
Review by Mc Pirate
Nez magnifique et gourmand sur le bonbon anglais, bouche forte en attaque et se fond sur du zeste d’orange. Beau rhum bien fabriqué surtout pour un millésimé…
Review by Jakob
Merkliche Zuckernote, die über das Reinprodukt hinaus geht. Wer sich davon abgeholt fühlt, findet hier definitiv einen der besseren Vertreter dieser Gattung. Mich stört die Fominanz der Süsse, da sie leider den Rest des Destillats deutlich überlagert. Insgesamt fehlt es an Komplexität, das Spektrum bleibt zu bewusst gefällig.

Too sweet for me nowadays.
