    Another nice tasting finished, this time with rums from the Domenican Republic. This one was better than the 18 year old version. Vanilla and butterscotch (to some extent) dominate this rum. A very gentle and uncomplex rum, but at the price tag pretty good.

    Sehr süß, Vanille, Zimt, künstliche Backaromen.

    Not bad. Could be a little smoother but that's what the 23 year old is about.

    A little too flat, dry and woody for the price.
