It's a very sweet rum that I really like! The caramel and woodiness really stand out! A very nice little rum
A little sharp in the aroma but nice and smooth in the taste. Slightly sweet and mega spicy. Not so much aftertaste
A fine discovery A light, easy-drinking rum, but not without interest, In addition to caramel and vanilla, there's some dried fruit, fig and redcurrant... pretty cool. Too bad the finish is short!
Vanilla, caramel
