“Nothing memorable. However, good value for money. Alcohol is not well integrated. Medium finish.”

“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.”
