    Un mhoba qui me réconcilie avec mhoba. Jusqu'alors je n'avais pas été conquis, voire même degouté (le strand 101) par ce que j'avais bu. La j'ai degusté un très bon rhum, dans le style esters mais qui restait agréable. Je poursuivrai ma découverte de la marque.

    Un nez complexe avec des côtés agricoles. Une bouche chaleureuse.

    My first Mhoba and I’m positively surprised. Has a high-ester punchiness that really beefs up the profile. The follow-through and finish is a bit more disappointing as I was expecting more to happen after the initial oomf in the mouth. But still, good rum that makes me curious about this distiller. I have a feeling that Mhoba has the potential for that one expression that will just blow everyone away and hopefully it won’t be too long before they do.

    Merci Cris 🇵🇹
