“Had the Sedunum bottling. The nose is subtle even if diverse nuances are there. The Orange Wine finish makes the rum very round. Even if I have the impression that the Jamaican notes thereby get into the background. Good trib strength.Good rum that brings some layers of flavor. Fun to drink. Very good PLV.”

“While nose and finish are pleasing, the experience on the palate is rather flat and alcohol forwards. Does not meet my expectations for a VRW unfortunately.”

“Skin me now not so from the stool. Still quite alcoholic and somehow I see no sense in the finish. Would probably not have tipped at the first smell on Long Pond ...”
