Aroma süße Melasse-Noten zum Ausdruck, gefolgt von tropischen Früchten und anregender Zartbitterschokolade
Toller Gesamteindruck. Ein leckerer Rum.
A straight rum , which is harmonious, slightly sweet and spicy! With a touch of wood! All around successful!
Very sweet. Comparable to the El Dorado standard range, however, somewhat lighter and more sweet.
