9.2/10

Probably the best product from Antigua on the market. Would not have thought that this particular barrel from the normal blend of the other 27 barrels brings so much more complexity but the thing is really ne grenade. Alcohol is extremely well integrated and even a touch more complex than the 66%. Hot stuff! Whether he is worth the considerable surcharge compared to the also very good "normal" bottling I do not know🤣

8.8/10

Vanilla, coconut, creamy caramel, citruses, light roasted and a lot more going on, very complex, very satisfying. I just can't get over the citrusy-creamy combo. Absolute banger. The taste however has a little alcoholic bite.
