     Got a sample of this rum from RR Tasting Club. It’s OK, but nothing more. Don’t know if there’s any added sugar, but there’s a certain sweetness. Could maybe be something for those who want to taste something less sweet than DRE or Zacapa 23.

     Encore un produit qui ne sert pas la cause du rhum. Je n'ai pas vérifié mais je pense que ce rhum est sucré artificiellement et coloré. Aucun intérêt. Du sirop de caramel. De la vanille. Un vague goût de bois. Sans intérêt.

     For me personally, a rum of the better category. No artificial flavors, very woody, coffee, a good, not too spicy finish. A very good value rum for the quality.

     Un bon rhum pour débuter mais devient beaucoup trop plat avec l'expérience
