    Rating (0-10)
    8.0/10 5 reviews

    Nose: alcoholic, pencil shavings, a bit mineral. This settles down, at the benefit of glue and molasses, yellow fruit, syrup, and vanilla. Taste: very syrupy, almost sweet, on yellow fruit such as peach on syrup, mango, molasses, a touch of earth, glue, wood, but also still some alcoholic feel. Finish: After tad bitter and alcoholic, less fruity and still with the glue note. All in all, the nose is nice after aeriation, but this the alcohol isn't integrated very well. Expect pencil shavings, glue, neutral alcohol, ow fruit, syrup, a hint of vanilla.

    Netter, unaufgeregter, weicher Rum, dem man seine Vol% nicht anmerkt. Gut zu trinken, macht Spaß. Nicht komplex, ein richtiger EveryDayRum. Erinnert mich etwas an Rums aus St. Lucia, Panama… in die Richtung.
