Trade fair evaluation GRF14
Auf jedenfall Guyana klar zu erkennen. In der Nase ist er wie ein "Enmore/KFM/REV"-Mischung. Im Geschmack: Kaffee Ristretto, Bitterschokolade, Holz, getrocknete Bananen, Datteln und Lakritze. Schöne dezente süße und milder Abgang.
Not Barbados 🇧🇧, but yes Guyana 🇬🇾. On the nose is like a "Enmore/KFM/REV" blend. On the taste, coffee ristretto 😋, bitter chocolat, wood, dried bananas & date & licorice. If you like the Diamond 2008 Rum Club, you will enjoy this Cadenheads 🤩
Überraschend gut, viel Guyana, schöne Süße, nur ein paar Prozente fehlen ihm. Vermutlich Diamond vom Stil, aber was genau abgefüllt wurde, bleibt wohl ein Gehemnis :)
