Pomme en finale. Un vieux calvados !
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Not too bad and the price is OK.
Review by alex
Contrary to the other comments I have read, I find it a bit "light" on the nose, but it is still very pleasant. Also in the mouth where the aromas are powerful and very good. Average length.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Incredibly cool agricole with a super atypical aroma profile. Nose: toffee, burnt caramel, dried apricots, tonka bean and fully ripe pineapple. The taste is much drier and woodier than expected with a slight saltiness and an intense creamy toffee note. Extremely tasty, elegant and complex!

Note de piment agréable à la fin
Review by Surcoup Jean
Très bon rhum surprenant et très agréable. Fris , fruité , un parfum de jeune fille ! Un vrai plaisir, une vraie découverte. Quelle maturité et une vraie différence. L artisanat a du bon. Attendre 15 mn dans son verre avant de le boire
Review by Yann
Rhum très délicat doux et acidulé , nez très discret et qui a besoin d’aération .
Review by Oliver
Very tasty, but unfortunately a little too thin.
Review by Stefan Persson
At the palate and during the finish it’s perfectly alright, but the nose is very unpleasant. The price is very way too high, but I found my bottles at an Spanish webshop to the third of the normal price which make it price worthy for me.
Review by Johannes
Very special, unfortunately somewhat diluted, but nevertheless complex rhum that reminds me a little of Reimonenq.
Review by Pascal Gwada
Rhum très intéressant, frais et fruité. Nez sympa sur la vanille. Bouche très originale fraîche un peu énolique sur le caramel beurre salé. 2de impression pomme verte au nez, attaque un peu trop franche en bouche enolique puis astringente , pas de longueur.
Review by Hendrik Fröhlich
Kurzer Abgang, schmeckt nach kürzerer Lagerung, sehr frisch und fruchtig.
Review by Frank
Has something muted, herbal on the nose. Not fresh but rather rooty. And something artificial metallic. Horizon a touch of iodine. In the mouth without air somehow musty stale. With oxygen then comes immediately bitter salty green, green tea. In the finish remains a little bitter green tea. Interesting flavor development, but not quite my cup of tea.
Review by Quentin Dhaussy
Sympa, mais prix trop élevé Les bielles ou bellevue surpassent ce père labat
