"Well, I don't know what to say about this. At first you could just taste the alcohol. Over time, the sweet chocolatey taste came out. Nevertheless, the alcohol dominates. Definitely quite good with cola."

"Uff, again rough one. Musty wood and rancid butter or margarine with butter aroma. A lot of alcoholic sensation all through out... At the end a sharp burn of sugar or sweetener. This one is really rough and I sincerely do not get why you need so many of those .."

"Wie auch bei dem jüngeren Carúpano strotzt dieser Rum nur so vor Sahne-Karamellbonbon. Insbesondere an der Nase. Am Gaumen dann ähnlich, aber gepaart mit etwas Herbem, dass mich an Vollkornbrot erinnert. Insgesamt aber recht dünn"
