Looking at the price tag you get a lot for your money with this release. A very fruity and sweet rum with some spices and nice roasted wood. The caramel in the profile could have been a bit more subtle, but some like it 😊 The empty glass is really nice and has even stronger flavours.
In der Nase süße Frucht die von Vanille und Schokolade abgelöst wird. Aber auch Lösemittel und Alkohol sind deutlich erkennbar. Im Mund dann eher flach und bitter im Abgang dann kräftig würzig. Röstnoten bleiben noch einige Zeit auf der Zunge.
Nose: strong lost banana, wood, vanillaMouth: alcohol largely well integrated, burns slightly on the first sip, but thereafter largely gentle, woody, bitter, less fruity. Finish: maximum notice, warming, not special. Can be drunk away quite well, but is nothing complex/special. Do not buy again
Good Belize, but nothing spectacular.
