"At the palate and during the finish it’s perfectly alright, but the nose is very unpleasant. The price is very way too high, but I found my bottles at an Spanish webshop to the third of the normal price which make it price worthy for me."
"Not too bad and the price is OK. "
"Very special, unfortunately somewhat diluted, but nevertheless complex rhum that reminds me a little of Reimonenq."
"Contrary to the other comments I have read, I find it a bit "light" on the nose, but it is still very pleasant. Also in the mouth where the aromas are powerful and very good. Average length."
