Review by Martin Švojgr
Po dlohé době vzorek staré demerary. Barva tmavá mahagonová. Hned na první přivonění je cítit spálený cukr, tmavý karamel, kávu ďrevo. V chuti se přidávají rozinky včetně štopek, které přidávaji hořkost v závěru. Krásně jemné, alkohol vůbec necítím, parádní kousek.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This is a tasting from 10.05.2019 where I went out with a few colleagues for a nice tasting. Notes i have. Very dark and kind of light rum. ABV could have been higher but very well balanced. Slight medicibal touch like cough sirup to it.
Review by Johannes
Wow, despite the 43%, the nose is amazingly intense with a beautiful plum compote. Fantastic! The intensity continues on the palate, with roasted aromas, wood and a slight bitterness dominating alongside the plum.
