"The flavorful outlier among the Velier diamonds - but by no means in a negative sense. Those who like licorice and leather notes in Demerara will find what they are looking for here. I personally like the profile very much and catapults the bottling consequently also in the top range. No classic Diamond essence, rather 70s Demerara notes with tart, heavy sweetness. An absolutely outstanding release."

"Really cool part! The rusty Specknoten reminiscent of a Damoiseau. Real surprise!"

"This and no other is what a classic Demerara should taste like!The color a madness.An old dresser, freshly embedded, oak and licorice. Bacon! Dark, heavy and oily.I almost took it as an after shave...🤭"

"Awesome Diamond with a great licorice note. Tastes like from a cherry wood barrel. Deep and heavy. Long finish, alcohol perfectly integrated."
