“It has all the characteristics of the extremely intense 2001 vintage, but thanks to the comparatively low strength, the rum is not overpowering, but rather invites you to discover the aromas. Due to the significantly lower strength, there is of course a lack of intensity here and there, but the rum does not appear really thin. Not enough for the absolute top class from 2001, but in my eyes the rum is nowhere near as clearly inferior as the current overall rating suggests - but of course the same applies here: De gustibus non est disputandum.”

“A rum tasted at the WLP. A lovely, warm nose of overripe tropical fruit, herbs and varnished wood. The palate is a little disappointing, too dry and not very aromatic. With more fruit. The finish is very short and ends on astringent wood. A far cry from the promise of the nose.”

“A rum with potential on paper, the nose offers a nice mix of floral and medicinal notes on phenols and fermentation, a more empyreumatic side on rubber and fruity aromas on tropical fruit marmalade. The profile is rather attractive and well-constructed, with some spicy, woody notes in the background. On the palate, the rum loses some of its superb character. The rum is light, lacking intensity and impact, not least because of the relatively low degree. The exotic fruits are still present, with a little vanilla and caramel sweetness, spices and medicinal, rubbery notes. There's some butter on the palate, too. The alcohol is well integrated. The finish is very subdued, with the same medicinal, sweet, buttery, fruity and slightly spicy profile. A few aromatic herbs graft themselves briefly before escaping like the rest of the aromas. A pleasant rum in aromatic terms, but lacking the length to compete with other bottlings from the same Millesime.”
