Ein Sample vom Rumfestival 20.09.2024 Intensive Lack- und Lösungsmittelnoten. Mount Gay ist im Hintergrund gut erkennbar - Bananenbrot, Vanille, Keks, Karamell und Früchte. Nach einer Weile kommen tropische Früchte, vor allem Mango, zum Vorschein. Schöne, komplexe Würze. Eine tolle Nase, sehr komplex und interessant. Im Mund sehr ölig, schönes Gefühl. Karamell, Trockenfrüchte und sehr würzig. Tolle Trinkstärke. Prickelnde Zitrusfrüchte und wärmende Würze im Abgang. Sauguter Mount Gay mit Ecken und Kanten. Handwerklich toll gemacht. Davon war ich sehr positiv überrascht.😀
Tastes like cough syrup… first mount hay I didn’t like (like really really really didn’t like) I hope it stays an exception ;)
Out of the box dry nice taste price?
Good, fruity and herbaceous aroma but still a little young in my opinion. With a little more ageing and melting I can imagine it very well. I wouldn't have guessed Barbados or MG blind, I don't think.
