    Can only agree with one of the other reviewers, I have exactly the same association: a light rum with fruity notes and a pleasantly long finish.

    Vorweg: Wir sind keine Freunde fürs Leben geworden: Ganz angenehme Frische mit Aprikosen und einer leichten Süsse in der Nase. Geschmacklich rund, ohne Fehlnoten, mittelmäßig eingebundener Alkohol. Dazu eine sehr präsente torfige Note die auch den Abgang bestimmt. Handwerklich sicher ordentlich, für Cuba sicher nicht schlecht, hat aber nicht mein Herz getroffen, ein Sample reicht vollends…
