Très bien fait. Très pâtissier. On sent bien l’amande, les fruits exotiques et après 15/20 minutes des notes de cerises et pruneaux. C’est très bon.

Review by Djehey
Nez plutôt discret sur les fruits jaunes avec une odeur étrange. Des médicaments, une odeur minérale. La bouche est douce, très gourmande, boisée et pâtissière, avec quelques épices. En fin de bouche, on retrouve ces arômes étrange de médicaments. La finale est longue. L'alcool est plutôt bien intégré. Les notes médicamenteuses ne m'ont pas gênées, voire je les trouve agréable... Mais je comprends que ça puisse en gener certains. Le prix est cohérent.
Review by Jakob
Classic VSG profile, sweetness of candied dried fruit, plus the slightly metallic minerality of the typical pencil shavings notes, licorice, pepper, wood. Still a very good rum, but there are better representatives of the vintage.
Review by Leo Tomczak
Almost 2 years after the 1st tasting still very similar impressions. Lots of dry herbs, almost like an ethereal elixir. Medical undertone and smoky finish. Very complex and demanding, not a rum for beginners.

Review by Benoit Mahe
Un rhum qui aurait pu me plaire (chocolat, café) mais qui me paraît trop minéral. L'alcool pourrait être mieux intégré.
