    #4302 19.10.2023 off early today so I can get ready for the flight to Paris 06.00 tomorrow morning from Hamburg. Had to pull this one from the back of my cabinet so I can get on the mood 😂 This is a very nice Navy Rum. I don't remember how much I paid, that is if I paid for it 😊 Fruity with nice roasted wood and smoky notes. Spices and ABV are well integrated. The palate is oily and smooth with a touch of herbs and light caramel. The finish is very long and well balanced. Draws thick slow moving curtains in the glass. The empty glass has some plum and light chocolate.
