“Quite atypical St. Lucia with many floral and roasted associations. Lots of wood influence and very well integrated alcohol. One of the top bottlings from Saint Lucia!”

“For me one of the top representatives from St. Lucia. However, this bottling is not part of the absolutely classic profile. The dirty Lucia notes are used much more discreetly here, which makes the rum appear rounder. Very nice!”

“Formidable profile. Citrus, fresh green notes, gentle minerality and olives, wood - really impressive. The only criticism in my eyes is the somewhat too concise roasted aroma.”
