    Interesting flavours of forest honey and herbs going on. Better with original ABV than reduced with water.

    #4651 09.03.2024 relaxing at home with some nice samples from Roberto. Nose Fresh, faint wood, fruits, sweet, ester, vegetal. Palate Spicy, sweet, light wood, faint smoke, fruity, ester, vegetal. Finish Long, spicy, citrus, light ester. Draws nice curtains in the glass. The empty glass has some glue, faint floral and light caramel notes.

    Silnější rum z jižní Afriky. Ve vuni ta díla poznat není, převládá seno a tráva. Chuťově trochu drsnější. Za mne your rum

    My first Mhoba. Aroma is very fruity, I noticed alcoholic scent. There is little bit of that FUNKY scent, which kind of reminds me rums from Jamaica, but there is a lot of hay/straw and fruity scents (citrusy and some sweet scent honey??). The taste is very similar to aroma. I really liked the straw/hay taste with combination of very pleasant warmth feeling. Taste is one big bang of fruity flavor (citrus). Finish is long and complete with that pleasant warmth feel, spicy and fruity. Definetly not a rum for everyone.
