    Interesting rum that is very difficult for me to grasp in terms of taste: the sweetness dominates at the beginning (but not sticky or unpleasant). Over time, wax and vegetal notes are added. Sometimes I feel reminded of a St. Lucia profile, then again of Guyana notes. The alcohol is very well integrated. A very exciting rum, even if it somehow doesn't quite grab me personally.

    Keine einfache Kiste. Die Nase gefällt mir gut, es ist aber alles etwas verschlossen und kalt. Schöne natürliche Süße mit einem feinen rauchigen Unterton. Am Gaumen kommen Kräuter dazu. Der Rum ist etwas rau und leicht alkoholisch. Etwas dünn. Mir gefällt diese Abfüllung, sie hat aber auf jeden Fall Ecken und Kanten. Das 2000er WIRD Profil ist da, aber nicht so intensiv wie bei anderen Abfüllungen.
