“Day 24 RumX calendar What an unusual rum! I couldn't place it in any corner! St. Lucia I would never have suspected! Black Adder was almost 100% certain for me due to the charcoal residue in the glass! The flavors are more on the herbal side, but harmonize neatly as the spices provide good contrast! I like the St. Lucia very much”

“St. Lucia 99 is simply brilliant! The red fruits, tobacco, vanilla, leather...wonderful! Perhaps the Nobilis No. 17 SLD was still a kleinwenig rounder on the nose, but for this the Blackadder is brutally gripping on the palate, with charred wood, fresh mint and long finish...”
