    Second tasting: very pleasing but the taste is within the expected range, except in the aftertaste I detect a honey note today (+1) Nose: not very exciting and alcoholic Palate: strongly spicy and quickly changes to bitter, burnt sugar Finish: focus on the barrel Solid Dominican rum without any great special features.

    01.11.2019 Den Dansk Rom & Whiskyfestival This was my first visit to this two day event, where everything is included in the ticket. Also the first event where I have seen so many extremely drunk people. This event usually just has what's considered mainstream products, but luckily my friend had the right contacts so for a premium we had our own little collection to go through. Today I get free a free ticket if I want to attend 😊 Not too bad a rum especially thinking about the price tag. Lightly fruity with nice caramel and chocolate. The palate is oily with nice coffee notes. The finish is medium to long and spicy. ABV could have been better integrated.

    Nice chocolate, barrel, but he could stand a longer storage. Alcohol not top integrated. But not a bad drop!

    Times an unsweetened, dry Dominican. A little too much alcohol, it takes some time before the aroma carried by coffee and cocoa comes to the fore. Not bad but certainly goes much better 🙂
