    02-09.04.2022 This was crazy week, where some friends and I rented a nice summerhouse on Rømø. The plan was to go nuts for a whole week with different rums without going overboard. The final agreement came to 6 rums a day and then enjoy nice walks or ferry rides during the day. Day 4 Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Light roasted wood, dried fruit, light nutts, light coffee, faint chocolate. Palate Warm, light wood, roasted, light coffee, light honey, light chocolate, light almonds, light fruits. Finish Long and warm, medium dry, light wood, faint chocolate, dried fruit, light almonds. Extra note. Got better as it warmed up in my hand.

    A 66,6°, l'intégration de l'alcool est remarquable ! On pourrait presque dire que c'est un easy sipper. On sent bien les deux origines ainsi que les deux essences de bois. Le côté pot still ne se fait pas trop sentir. Une belle réussite.

    Very dominant dried fruit flavors that take up a bit too much space for me.

    "plutot goutu, mais compliqué à boire. bcp trop astreingent pour moi, j'avais la gorge très seche en fin de degustation. En resume, mes notes de degutation : Au nez : Caramel, Mielleux En bouche : Fruits secs, Lourd "
