„So young and yet already grown up, with fermented vanilla cane, mixed with pecan, all in a young cask with little shavings of burnt wood floating around...“

„A Mhoba that's still as compelling as ever, with improbable aromatic combinations such as fermented yoghurt with burnt sugar, a hint of salt, sugar cane and floral notes as well as ripe fruit. A rum that leaves no one indifferent. On the palate, the attack is lively and powerful. Sugar cane joins musk, mushroom and compost notes to form a block against spices and young, lightly roasted oak. Fruit is only sporadic on the palate. The alcohol is well integrated into this zany, initially puzzling profile. The finish, of decent length, returns to fermentation, some fruit, spicy wood, but above all with a hint of smoked meat like bacon that adds another dimension. A rum that offers a most original gustatory voyage.“

„For his young age already very complex and intense! He is on the dark sweet spicy side with light fruit parts... the Mhoba rum I always like better“

„The Mhoba Glass Cask does not have this slightly exhausting garlic/truffle oil aroma on the nose as perceived in Mhoba Strand 101 and French Cask. Instead, I perceive very light floral aromas behind the tumbleweed. On the palate then also more easy sipping than Strand 101 and French Cask. Really very very tasty, very round and balanced. Caramel, spice and this typical for Mhoba steppe grass. Simply a round thing. The finish is medium long, with some toffee and caramel.“
