    A highly concentrated Mhoba High Ester. The nose focuses on esters, fermentation and decomposition notes found in plants such as mushrooms. Herbaceous and earthy notes prolong the extreme side, while fruitiness and sugarcane try to bring back a little balance. However, despite the introduction of exotic fruit on the palate, these vegetal, fermented and phenolic notes remain dominant throughout. This is a full-bodied, powerful rum that makes its point. The finish, of fairly good quality, does not falter. The flavors remain the same, with the same intensity. There's a dry, vegetal, almost anaesthetizing quality on the palate. A rustic and authentic Mhoba, but well constructed.

    Super fruchtig, tolle Ester, erstaunlich gut eingebundener Alkohol! Richtig gut!
