Edit: actually a little too bitter for me, corrected downwards again. All in all, a solid rum. There is a slight bitterness in the taste that bothers me a little. Otherwise the rating would have been higher. The alcohol is well integrated.
No Velier but a very nice taste experience. Absolutely top for the price. Due to the volume and the relative sweetness, it goes down well, dangerously drinkable, yet complex and a nice journey of discovery.
Beautifully complex, lots of molasses, alcohol very well integrated!
This Diamond is heavy and dark. Immediately leather, licorice and Maggi on the nose. But also a slight sweetness of burnt sugar and nuts. This interplay of aromas continues almost seamlessly on the palate. Overall, a little tiring, but still just okay
