The intensity level of the nose is wild with notes of acetone and wooden lacquer supplemented by mellow ripe tropical fruits and tarlike barrel notes. It's deeply aromatic. The taste is a demerara explosion in your mouth. It's mineralized with deep fruity notes of black grapes and liqourice. The aftertaste stays with you for a long, long time. You need to be in the right mood for this bad boy as it's
intensity demands attention. Mood dependant, it's boderline to a 9.
very very distinguishable velier piece of art...if you like the pungent now disarmed Uitvlugt style.
Absolutely not for sherry-sweetened oaky - aficionados
eine der letzten Kulttropfen von DDL welche noch zu kriegen und halbwegs erschwinglich sind ,genauso wie der 1996 welcher ebenfalls Spitze ist.
Wunderschöne Nase ,schön eingebundener Alkohol,früchte mit einer feinen schönen Süsse untermalt mit etwas Holz,ein nahezu perfekter Rum.
Au nez la première chose à sortir est du solvant, puis arrive de la coco, de la vanille, du chocolat et des fruits confits.
La bouche est huileuse et le solvant est toujours présent, mais tout d’un coup le rideau s’ouvre et laisse la place aux fruits confits, à la coco, réglisse… La promesse du nez est tenue.
Un boisé se rajoute à cet ensemble pour la longue finale.
vraiment très bon, mais ne vaut pas le tarif auquel on le trouve maintenant.
