    Un rhum dégusté au Whisky Live à Paris en 2025. Un nez d’esters extrêmes, de la colle, du verni à ongles. En bouche les esters sont bien présents aussi, une bouche ultra sèche mais avec une petite douceur. Des fruits tropicaux trop mûrs mais aussi des fruits rouges. La finale est très courte, mais les arômes qui restent ensuite en bouche sont délicieux une fois les esters évaporés. L’expérience d’un rhum extrême.

    Among the attractions of the Planteray stand (a myriad of skittles available), the Hogo Monsta, WIRD's secret sauce, was there to soften the palate (or blow it up, each to his own). I personally tasted it 3 times, and each time I found it enormous, but affordable. It's still a 2000-ester dinguerie, packed with overripe fruit and solvents, but so "soft" on the palate. As a Daiquiri, huge of course, it's not meant to be drunk neat, even if the experience is pleasant.

    Hogo Monsta 2025. 2024 unverdünnt fand ich aber noch deutlich geiler 😆 aber trotzdem eine krasse Erfahrung, insgesamt aber relativ wenig facettenreich und primär fruchtig und esterig. Sämtliche anderen Aromen die ein Vergleichbarer Hampden DOK etc hat fehlen hier.
