    Stable, spicy, strong blend, but a little too bitter and burnt for me personally.

    Really nice blend. Makes an extremely drinkable and tasty figure in any daiquiri. The nose gives you the feeling of sitting on the beach and enjoying a vacation. Citrus fruits, limes, a little caramel. Really delicious!

    The Jamaican influence is there, there's some pep, some fruit, it's pretty cool even if it remains wise, with a little vanilla and caramel. A well-balanced rum, with a little strength, but quite dry. Not bad.

    All my Tastings and Scores are purely based on “Rums under £50”. I rarely look at Rums over £50 for my YouTube.
