Review by Jakob
Outstanding Versailles representative, rightly one of the benchmark rums of this still. The only point of criticism is the dilution and the possibly wasted potential for even more complexity - but here you can also simply enjoy a distillate that never comes across as thin or watery. Excellent!
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
14.04.2012 First visit to the Whisky.dk event after returning to Denmark after first living 3 years in Upplands Väsby, Sweden and then 7 years in Shanghai, China. Got back together with old friends to have a nice weekend. Notes. Light in colour. Nose: wood, medicinal, citrus, plum, herbs, marzipan. Palate: wood, fruity, plum, spicy, licorice, marzipan. Finish: long, wood, herbs, licorice, citrus.
