    How does this rum taste?

    Produced in Haiti at the Barbancourt distillery, the "3 Stars" rum is crafted from sugar cane honey using a column still and has an ABV of 43%. Users note its prominent vanilla aroma with hints of spice, nutty almond, and floral undertones. The taste features vanilla, followed by spice, chocolate, caramel, and citrus. While some find the rum's profile pleasant and balanced with a good quality-to-price ratio, others critique its flatness and lack of depth. This rum offers a simple, sweet experience but may not satisfy those seeking complexity and richness, according to feedback from the RumX community.

    The comic advent calendar day 12 Slight sweetness some vanilla everything ok but also very flat.

    Der komische Kalender Tag 12 Alles in allem war er ganz o.k. hab viel Vanille und Karamell geschmeckt. Auf Haiti bin ich mal wieder nicht gekommen. Leider sind die Rums aus den alten Jahren alle sehr verwässert.

    Von allem etwas zu wenig, sehr zart an Nase und Gaumen.

    In der Nase würzig und Süß im Mund dann ebenfalls fruchtig und süß. Im Abgang bilde ich mir Schokolade und Vanillenoten ein. Ganz ok aber nichts besonderes.
