"Finally got to sample the other half of this package. Lovely rum which needs to rest 20-30 minutes to get the full package off flavours Lightly dry and a slight bitterness with some fruits and chocolate. The glass the day after is really nice on the nose. "

"On the nose is pretty nice, better than the tropical, with honey marzipan and some hints of grappa. This dramatically changes while drinking, extremely bitter and metallic, a great astringency but little taste, mainly chemical, and only a little floral note. It's a no."

"On the nose still wonderfully fruity and mild, the palate is rather disappointing! Too bitter and woody... the fruit is completely lost and the alcohol is poorly integrated! Overall, however, slightly better than its tropical brother"

"nice experiment between Continental and tropical aging but unfortunately both rums are almost not drinkable for me...the continental in the case rather reminds of a mixture of Williams pear and glue.... not harmonious no matter how long you let him breathe and in the finish totally after burnt plastic..."
