A very pleasant nose to start the discovery of this rum. Glue, caramel, vanilla, tropical fruit and wood blend harmoniously. Very inviting! On the palate, the alcohol is a little biting on the first sip. Then ripe, caramelized fruit. Lots of greediness. Peppery vanilla finish. Correct length. The taste is not on a par with the particularly pleasant nose. But a nice selection.
The cask strength version is unfortunately not much better. It also seems more like Barbados rum than Fiji... The alcohol is rather poorly integrated and is very pungent, making the drinking experience rather unharmonious. Apart from alcohol, some caramel and baking spices, there's not much to be found here.
👃The vanilla and caramel flavors are quite present accompanied by a mix of ripe fruit and a little glue, all in sweetness. 👄 To this you add cocoa and a little coconut and cinnamon on the palate. It's oily and powerful with its high alcohol content, and the finish is rather long. Let yourself be tempted
Unfortunately not a typical Fiji profile. Rather boring, young fresh oak barrel with lots of vanillin. Not much else.
