    Gefällt mir ziemlich gut und ist zudem auch erschwinglich. Ist reichlich komplex, fruchtig, herb und insgesamt eher trocken. Die Fasslagerung kommt weniger durch, was ihn manchmal etwas dünn erscheinen lässt. Mehr % wären stark. Insgesamt aber top

    Schön unaufgeregter Easy Sipper, aber die Nase ist überragend.

    Quand un assemblage est bien fait pas besoin de sucre! C’est du velours très facile à boire, et une super transition vers des rhums plus secs pour ceux qui veulent sortir des ron de tradition hispanique.

    Neat it is a a easy sipper, those comes along with some spices, wood and fruits from the different distilleries. The alcohol is there but not too bad. But keep in mind this is only 40%. The same on the palate and it feels a bit too sweet (dosage)? Neat there are better options in this price range but still it is with a try. As a mixer I liked it a lot, especially as addition to reduce the ABV when blending different Rums.
