I've never had a Mhoba like this in my glass! The nose reminds me more of a Guyana rum and port wine. There's hardly any of the esters that I'm used to from Mhoba, but it's still very interesting! On the palate the same game, earthy heavy notes almost like an El Dorado rum with a port cask finish. The result is extremely drinkable, but largely masks the character of the rum. I'm torn: today I'm surprised by the experience and delighted at how a Mhoba can be made to appear as a Guyana rum. With a little distance: blindly, it could also be an aged cherry brandy!
Mhm how do I start, Mhoba is sometimes a blast and I don't like some bottlings at all. But this one picks me up again. For me a very successful bottling. It doesn't quite come close to the Ingwe, but almost.
Also dies ist ein wirklich starker Mhoba. Ist in der Nase sehr speziell, vor allem Lösungsmittel, Politur und Portwein. Am Gaumenn dann entspannter, leicht süßlich, aber auch fruchtig und holzig zugleich. Top Teil.
an der Nase rote Johannisbeeren, saure Drops, und Eichenholzfass. Am Gaumen irgendwie ähnlich, ziemlich sauer, hinten raus dann auch etwas Karamelliges hinzu. Ziemlich wildes Teil, wird jetzt nicht mein Mhoba Favorit.
