"Both on the nose and on the palate, a vegetable, paprika note is noticeable, for me it had something of a savanna. There was also a vegetable bottling. Unfortunately, it doesn't suit my taste at all."
"An easy-drinking, uncomplicated rum with a pleasant profile. Lots of fruit on the nose. Mostly lychee. Cane, a very vegetal note. Same on the palate, where the low degree makes it very easy to drink. Not crazy, but rather pleasant."
"So far, the only rather pleasant Japanese rum."
