“This is a retasting and I stick to my initial score. A great release and thanks to Thunderbird for the sample swap 😊 ----- Wow, this is a really nice rum. The nose is nice and fruity from opening the bottle. The fruityness is wall balanced with spices and of course esters and some polish. The palate matches the nose with its fruitiness and spices. A heavy yet balanced palate with a bit of wood and menthol. The finish is long and fruity with ginger and lugt coffee/barrel.”
