    Dunkle Töne mit Kräutern und grünem Apfel. Sowohl im Geruch als auch im Geschmack. Der Alkoholstärke ist ideal gewählt. Der Geschmack ist komplex und langatmig. Damals für unter 100€ gekauft und für gut befunden. Für den jetzigen Preis würde ich ihn wahrscheinlich nicht nochmal kaufen

    I'll have to taste it again when I'm done with Corona. No sooner said than done. He has barely breathed a few days and I have successfully put Covid behind me, the droplet already tastes much better

    Guter Rum. Gibt aber bestimmt interessantere Fässer. Schmeckt einzigartig. Für anspruchsvolle Genießer nicht unbedingt zu empfehlen.

    Preparing for the 10th GRF, the day after tomorrow in Berlin.Nose: wow, citrus, orange and spices. Intensely orangeate and potpourri. Some green apple, almost seems a bit artificial and floral. Back out slightly buttery.Palate: here again spicier, some red pepper with cinnamon and cardamom. In addition, but also immediately again the candied orange peel and apple. Slightly bitter and yet somewhat salty-sweet.In the finish it remains spicy, gets a little more wood, retains there orangeate.Already good, but a little too one-dimensional.
