    14.02.2023 Relaxing at home with a few samples. Colour Medium dark in colour. Nose Light, sweet, light nutts, light wood, faint chocolate, spice. Palate Light, sweet, fruits, light nutts, light caramel, faint coconut, light spicy, faint chocolate. Finish Medium long, sweet, fruits, light light raisin, light herbal, spice. There is a light bitterness in the profile and the ABV could have been better integrated.

    Not quite my thing. Initially fruity and a little spicy with delicate chocolate. Then rather sad and sour to slightly bitter. Not a bad rum but not my taste. Alcohol could also be better integrated

    Meh. Sweet and one-dimensional.

    nice grape on the nose, but too sweet on the palate
