Some migh consider this a light rum, but it's one of the best Fiji rums I have tasted. Fresh and fruity with some grass and flowers on there. I really like the smoky wood finish that last for a good while. On the first sip it is kind og heavy but it settles after that. Leave to rest for a good while and all the goodness comes at you. Leave the glass once empty and whif it after a couple of hours, pure joy I can tell you.

wow! das ist mein neuer Referenz Fiji Rum!🤤😍🇫🇯 super frische Minze, etwas English Breakfast Tea, Aprikose, gebackenes Croissant mit Zitrusmarmelade... die Nase ist geil aber der Geschmack kann noch mehr: Minze mit Schwarztee wieder, Aprikose, Mandarine, Grapefruit, Honig, Vanille, Piment und Nelke und im Abgang dann erneut frische Minze aber auch etwas Mokka, geröstete Mandeln und Ananas mit Kakao, alles untermalt von Klebstoff und Lösungsmittel. Richtig dreckiger und intensiver geiler Scheiß!

In der Nase eine tolle Aromatik, die schon weit vom Glas entfernt erkennbar wird. Tee, Heu, gekochte Früchte (Pflaumen und Kirschen) stechen hervor, später auch etwas Aprikose. Neben der fruchtigen kommt auch etwas schwerere Süsse dazu, die an Melasse und dezent an Gebäck erinnert. Im Mund melden sich zunächst dominante Teenoten, dazu frische Pflaume und Menthol. Auf der Zunge eine dezente Würzigkeit von Piment und Nelke. Der Abgang wird durch Pfeffer eingeleitet. Anschliessend kommt nochmals etwas Alkohol, Pflaumen sowie die sanfte Bitterkeit vom schwarzen Tee. Gesamt: Ein echtes „Brett“ mit Aroma ohne Ende. Irgendwie frisch und gleichzeitig schwer durch das feine Zusammenspiel der zahlreichen Aromen. Ein toller Vertreter der South Pacific Rums, der alle Spielarten vereint: Süsse und frische Früchte, sanfte Bitternoten vom Tee. Aussergewöhnlich.
