    "Un rhum dégusté au restaurant de l’embouteilleur indépendant Sansibar. Un nez de bonbon acidulé, d’ananas et de maracuja avec un soupçon de colle. La bouche est sur l’ananas et les fruits secs avec un petit côté pétillant un peu dérangeant. La finale sur les épices et les fruits jaunes est moyenne en longueur. Le rhum de Trinidad tempère le jamaïcain, mais n’apporte pas les super notes des rhums de Trinidad des années 2000-2003."

    "06.08.2022 Thinking about the price tag you get a lot for your money. A fresh and fruity rum with light esters and some glue. Pretty well balanced profile and a medium to long finish. The empty glass had light chocolate notes."

    "Surprising. Pleasant. In the sense of: I had low expectations. A bit of a wood-boat touch, caramel-sweet, but not at all overbearing. Great balance. On ABV I would have guessed 43%, but it's a surprising 10% more, so actually perfectly integrated alcohol. At a price of about 50 EUR also recommended to beginners or as a gift."
