"Yummy... that probably describes it best. 😅 Fruity, caramelly ... in the direction of candied fruit. Even light ester notes come through nicely! Excitingly delicious... simply good !!! More of this please 👍"

"Wow, what horny stuff, as they say nowadays! Mhoba is developing more and more from an exotic insider tip to a trendsetter. Who slowly leaves the beaten Jamaican paths like me, finds a perfect companion with Mhoba and especially with this rum. This Mhoba seems by the longer maturation clearly more adult than the (me) previously known rums of this distillery and has thus also the still reminiscent of Jamaica fruity ester horns repelled, it is instead noticeably spicy and herbal, with nicely balanced alcohol and super long, warming finish.The best Mhoba I have tasted so far."

"To the characteristic funk and effervescence comes a great spice from the barrel aging in addition. Seems more "adult" than its quite "cheeky" predecessors. Solvent, caramel, chocolate, a slight saltiness play harmoniously together - excellent MHOBA! Am very curious what the distillery will deliver in the future. I am in any case full of anticipation!"
