    Die Aromen lassen sich sehr gut aufdröseln. Ein guter Einstieg in die Rumwelt von Jamaika. Sicherlich weniger geeignet für bereits erfahrene Rumtrinker und Jamaika-Liebhaber. Die bezeichnen ihn wahrscheinlich als zu mild und zu rund, was den Estergehalt angeht.

    Funkie from nose to mouth. Full-bodied, with marzipan and a little custard. It's pleasant but rather dry and lacks a little gourmandise. It's well marked Jamaica but a 2016 Hampden Younger is quite similar but seems to me more gourmand and cheaper.

    To this day I force myself too drink it, it's way too acétone/solvant like for me

    19.12.2020 Nice tasting shortly before Christmas in a private area of the bar. Unfortunately this very old bar closed down in 2023. Notes Medium dark colour. Nose Light wood, ester, fruity, faint nutts, citrus. Palate Unbalanced, light wood, oily, ester, fruit. Finish Unbalanced, wood, ester, pineapple.
