    How does this rum taste?

    Reviewers notice bold notes of glue and varnish right away, with esters and a touch of citrus carrying from the nose to the palate. While most agree it's too sharp for sipping, fans highlight how well it stands up in creative cocktails like Daiquiris, adding a distinct ester-rich profile that some find surprisingly interesting for a Dominican rum. Worth a try if you're searching for something bold and unique in your mixers.

    A "compulsive" purchase on a pirate site in Germany... at 32€ you can't go far wrong with a great aroma BUT, of course, the nose is completely on esters and alcohol; too much alcohol. On the palate, however, there's some fruit, not unpleasant. I took it as a daiquiri afterwards, and it really does it! Not crazy, but still worth a small 7.

    Pure somewhat difficult in the drink not so wrong. Aromatically extremely much varnish and esters, but somehow not the beautiful esters. Reminds me of an unclean distilled pomace brandy with the pre- and post-run was not properly separated and thus the Uhu glue comes through. But as I said, in the drink really good and for a rum from the Dom Rep amazingly interesting.

    Crass, smells like UHU! 😳 On the palate, unfortunately, quite alcoholic. Nevertheless, an exciting experience!

    #4015 I would prefer this rum on the rocks or in a mixer. It's a little bit off in my mind, but I do like the very long and dry finish that stays with you for a long while.
