How does this rum taste?
Wild, funky MHOBA benchmark
If you enjoy Hampden, clairin or other high-ester monsters, this is a must-try MHOBA: big raspberry-yogurt funk, glue, wood and smoke, with enough balance to keep it thrilling.
Beginners, those sensitive to high ABV, or drinkers who dislike solventy, fermented, yogurt-like notes and very expressive ester profiles.

Excellent mhoba,yogurt,vanilla,toasted,raspberry,funky,complex..a little treat.
Hampden from Martinique. Tremendous complexity after 4 years and super integrated alcohol. Overripe fruit with undertones of agricole. Sour yogurt. Dry salted bacon on the finish.
Compared to the habitation velier on the palate it is more complex and has an excellent richness of flavors! It also gives you a very pleasant very fruity and sweet finish! Mhoba is surprising me more and more!
Le nez est fou ! Avec des esters de la canne à sucre et du yaourt fermenté à la vanille. la bouche est légèrement boisé complexe crémeuse et toasté. L'alcool est super bien intégré au vu de son taux élevé et son jeune âge. Un Mhoba un peu spécial !
