    Bombastisch! Nase ist äußerst ausgewogen, als ob man einen alten Jamaikaner vor sich hätte voller Vanille, Schokolade und bemerkbare Zusammenstellung von Fruchtester. Eine angenehme Süße im Mund rundet das Erlebnis ab und lässt die 59% sehr angenehm wirken. Einziger Schwachpunkt findet sich im dünnen und kurzen Abgang, sonst wäre auch eine 8.7+ möglich gewesen. Preisleistung sensationell, falls man die Möglichkeit hat direkt bei der Destillerie zu kaufen.

    Ein ansprechender Rum, bei dem sowohl dessen Jugend als auch die fehlende Reifung in einem echten Holzfass, außer durch den eher kurzen Abgang und die nahezu nicht vorhandene Holzigkeit, kaum zu erkennen sind. Beim Antritt schwingt für einen kurzen Moment eine merkwürdige Note von einem mit Kunststoff beschichteten Karton mit, aber das geschmeidige Mundgefühl und die sich entwickelnde Karamellbonbon-/Honigsüße in Kombination mit den Estern sind wirklich eindrucksvoll.

    Sehr interessant, was man mit Holzspähnen dann doch machen kann. Irgendwie dadurch sehr röstig und trocken. Sehr angenehmer Geruch. Man schmeckt das Florale gut raus und es fehlt jede Süße. Er hat fast schon eine gewisse Rauchigkeit. Nicht gerade ein daily zipper und mit interessantem Abgang. Ich kann meinem Vorredner nicht zustimmen, dass der Abgang kurz ist. Bin aber auch kein Fachmann für Rum aus Zuckerrohrsaft. Die 59 Prozent sind aber sehr gut eingebunden.
