Mezcal finish makes it special. Very unusual to other many Trinidads I had opportunity to try. Dry, almost like fruit destilat. It ia hard to describe taste and nose at the beging of bottle but foelr sure I say You should try.
A fine, exotic drop, in my opinion! A clear sticky note at the beginning, then something else on the finish, which must be the influence of the Mezcal cask. I'm already looking forward to the second tasting when the sample from Olivia arrives. On the other hand, a bottle is not expensive, you can't go wrong with the price ... Update 2023-11-28: The 2nd tasting confirms it: light but drinkable. A really successful mezcal experiment. Quite unlike the Calvados experiment released at the same time (still without a RumX number).
The smell is too mild. I smell only fresh fruit, a little bit of flowers and even less technicality. The taste is similar. I haven't had the pleasure of tasting mezcal yet, but the finish definitely gave it an interesting twist. A good experiment for me.
The mezcal finish works surprisingly well - as expected, the rum turns spicy and smoky on the palate, but doesn't get lost in it. An interesting experiment that can certainly be described as a success.
