Review by Tschusikowsky
Sehr angeneheme und wunderbar ausbalancierte Abfüllung. Schön komplex, ohne zu viel zu wollen, tolle Gesamtkombo. Der Jahrgang entäuscht nicht. Das Profil ist einfach etwas besonderes. Ich hoffe die Destille bringt wieder mal so einen Jahrgang heraus.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I like this bottler and I have just oddered three different releases from Jamaica. Their average quality is pretty good and the price tage even better. The nose is fruity with smoky wood, vanilla, tea and a hint of varnish. I love the cherry flavour that becomes clearer if you leave the glass empty for a while. The palate is lightly dry with smoky wood, fruits and spices. There is a lovely minty touch in there as well. The finish is lightly dry with smoky wood and a mix of fruits. Price to quality is very good.
Review by Piotr Ignasiak
This is my first Fiji and I'm excited to try something new. On the nose I get hit immediately by a burnt plastic or asphalt mixed with some flowers right after. Also some kind of tea and banana. The palate is quite dry, a bit light in mouth feel but quite complex. I get some berries and banana, which are overtaken by herbs and spices towards a finish. Very nice, thanks Artur for sharing a sample.
Review by Frank
Beautiful Fiji nose. Right from first comes this floral honey sweetness, lovely. Then light and fine the glue. Cherry banana passion fruit potpourri and some artificial strawberry banana HubbaBubba gum. Quite different on the palate: powerful, bitter, full-bodied. Intensely artificial, like soapy plastic with a hint of menthol. But there's also something almost herbaceous green. And spicy it becomes, anise. A beautiful Fiji.
Review by Daniel
Nase: würzige Aromen von Teer und Rauch dominieren, aber auch Frucht wie Banane. Zudem Schokolade. Gaumen: Alle Aromen der Nase finden sich auch am Gaumen wieder, wenngleich die Früchte dezenter ausfallen. Abgang: Noten von Schokolade und eine leichte Honigsüße Fazit: Hervorragender Rum, vollmundig, rund und ordentlich Charakter.
