"Nice nose, you can literally smell the old bourbon barrel in the cellar of a tropical wooden colonial house, but nothing more. A disappointment on the palate. Flat, ordinary. Unfortunately, the highest of feelings that the local bar has to offer - also in terms of the glass. Available in the supermarket for around 35 EUR. Bar price? I'll be surprised ... Supplement: Bar price ended up being almost 5 EUR for 4 cl, which this rum is definitely not worth. But I found it today in a liquor store as a shelf warmer for about 14 EUR/bottle, which is more reasonable."
"#5023 03.01.2025 Sampling a bit at home after a few days of work. Nose Light, faint wood, sweet, light caramel, spice, light orange, light banana. Palate Light dry, wood, light roasted, spice, faint rubber, light chocolate, dried fruit, faint mint, light orange. Finish Medium long, light spicy, wood, faint rubber, light chocolate, faint caramel, light mint. The empty glass has light tea, faint peach and light herbs."
"This rum is slightly fruity on the nose and palate. You can also taste that it has matured in a bourbon cask. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite suit my taste. I don't like this fruity taste that much."
"Příjemná nevtíravá ovocně květinová vůně s prvky bylinek a eukalyptu. Chuť je na tom podobně. Celkem dost propsaný sud na to, že rum má jen 3 roky. Pro mě je to takový nenáročný pohodový rum. Tohle by mohlo zachutnat i začínajícím rumařům apod. Edit: jemná korekce hodnocení"
