    Though it has a short finish it's still a pretty good rum. I have all of the releases on my shelf and this is the most recent one. Ligh and well balanced rum with a touch of oak and vanilla. In the back i find nuttyness and tobacco.

    Ganz schön süß, künstliches Scholokadenaroma.

    Pleasant smell on the nose. Unfortunately, in my opinion, very flat and entertaining in the mouth and on the finish. PLV unfortunately not so good.

    Trochu zklamání, na to, že rum je skoro můj ročník… Rum je sladší, uhlazený, zakulacený, ale až tak, že mu skoro chybí tělo a má krátký dojezd…
