“Lovechild from 2010 Moneymusk MBS & 2006 Foursquare! Super mild & relaxed. Lots of honey, light fresh herbs like lemon verbena and some milk chocolate, as well as kumquat jam and toasted coconut chips. Could be a little more powerful but on the whole it is very tasty and elegant!”

“Third place within the new trio. The three rums are all well distinguishable from each other, each has a peculiarity. This one I felt somehow "off", as if there was something wrong with him or something was added to him. But you could also say, he has an unmistakable, strong character.Unfortunately, I can not say what irritated me so. I must probably taste again.”

“Nose is very nice with loads of coconut (akin to Foursquare) and pineapple. Acompanied by some light notes of citrus zests. Despite its long topical aging, this is very lively and vibrant. Much more wood forwards and dry on the palate. Some dried fruits and herbal notes are lingering in the background. Finish is very dry and adstringent yet not overly bitter.”

Aroma

Dark chocolate Orange peel Citrus Tropical fruit Molasses

Taste

Spicy Herbal Dry Vegetal Yellow fruits
