"Spicy esters is how I would describe this rum. The Virgin Oak has done an excellent job, which is really worth emphasizing, because storage in a barrel like this can quickly go horribly wrong. In my opinion, however, this was bottled at exactly the right time. Also extremely tasty in May Tai together with the Red Barrel. For me, the positive surprise of the presentation evening of Ed. 49 and 50 of the rum club. I predict that the rum will sell like hot cakes (German saying)."
"So finally tasted the sample. Yes, there's no denying it's a New Yarmouth. But very young, wild and alcoholic. In retrospect, a little too overrated for me. Very boisterous on its own. Quite nice as a mixer, but if you extrapolate the price to 0.7l, it's more midfield and not a mega bargain"
"For this price, it's awesome! Ages much older and more mature than the four years. I'm not the biggest Virgin Oak fan, but this was great."
"Almost complex for such a young high ester rum. A wonderful taste experience for HD fans."
