“Wow, a complex clairin that is really fun! Great, soft nose. The 4 years of tropical maturation bring a great creaminess. Pear and fresh sugar cane are added. Alcohol very well integrated. A real insider tip!”

“This is a very nice blend especially when looking at the price tag. I like the nose because it is there from oæe ing the bottle and only gets better whil rested in the glass. Well rounded and fruity with spices and a very nice floral bouquet. The palate is warm and takes off where the nose ends.”
