This should be a Rum to generate some discussion, one either likes it or hates it. I never had a Pineapple infused Rum and was quite curious. Smell and taste remind me of a joung higher ester Jamaican, the Pineapple is there but complements this instead of being to forward. I also believe that this one is not sweetened, which helps in my opinion. This is something to sip when one needs some relaxation without stressing mind and senses, it is nice and not overly complex. I believe there might also be some cocktail applications.

Süße gegrillte Ananas die eher wie ein Maiskolben mit Butter bestrichen wurde. Die Kombi der gegrillten Ananas mit Zuckerrohr funktioniert für mich nicht.

Nose: Vegetal, Woody, BBQ Smoke, Vanilla, Charred Pineapple Bark, Cinnmon, Cumin. Palate: Lighter mouthfeel, vegetal, Charred Pineapple Bark, Cinnamon, Cumin, BBQ Smoke, Glue, Young Wood Finish: Shorter, Glue, Vanilla, Overly charred pineapple, bitter grill char, Glue, Young wood. Rating: 3/10 This is a first for me, not being a fan of a Mhoba product but this just misses the mark for me. Young green woodnotes, a very bitter and astringent char flavor.

Schmeckt mir richtig gut! Deutlich natürlicher und kräftiger als der Fancy Pineapple von Plantation.
