“The successor to Sajous is quite similar to its predecessor, but doesn't quite come close. It is much tamer than the latter, which some people may like better, as it is somewhat rounder and more palatable. The range of aromas is very good and varied (fruit, spice, sugar cane)”

“Plenty of ester & funkyness - typical for sajous with lots of mango and sugar cane mainly - combined with burnt caramel and light barrel notes. Round, spicy, fruity, funky and intense. Nevertheless harmonious and could pass blind as a young high ester Jamaican. Main flavor: Pineberrys, a quasi albino strawberry and mixture of strawberry and pineapple. I like it surprisingly well!”

“#4566 20.01.2024 Relaxing a bit today ☺️ This is a pretty powerful rum and I love the mix of ester and light glue notes with the fruity part. The palate is lightly oily and warm with nice fruits. The finish is medium long and has a nice medicinal note to it. The empty glass has faint strawberry to it.”
