    #5182 29.03.2025 Running through some samples at home. Nose Light, round, wood, light roasted, dried fruit, light orange, faint chocolate, light marzipan. Palate Round, wood, light roasted, raisin, light orange, light honey, nutts, faint marzipan, light chocolate. Finish Medium long, wood, raisin, light nutts, light orange, faint caramel. Empty glass Light marzipan, light orange, vanilla, chocolate. Price to quality is very good and I think it would do great in a chocolate cake or over ice-cream .

    The smell is rather subtle. Dried fruits, vanilla, spices and a well-drinking cask. Maybe even a hint of technicality. And oak it comes. The palate is loaded with sugar. It could have been a good rum or it was an unpalatable abomination, so someone decided to hide it under a veil of caramel. I'd hang for this one🤯😁

    Sweet smell of vanilla as to be expected since it has been aged in american white oak barrels. Maybe some chocolate tones along with driet fruits. The palate is sweet and round. Dried fruits is there but I cannot figure out which ones specifically. Oak barrels are also very clear with its vanilla tones.

    Typical El Salvador. Some smoke, roasted hazelnuts and almonds, dark chocolate, tobacco, some dried fruit, cedar wood and cinnamon. Solid and nice and dry, just a little bitter on the finish. Perfectly fine for the money.
