Auch wenn ich kein Barbados-Fan bin und die wenigsten Mount Gays mir zusagen, so catcht mich dieser Rum irgendwie doch. Im Gegensatz zu seinem Bruder aus dem Rumclub deutlich ausgewogener und harmonischer. Sowohl die Rauchigkeit, als diese gewisse pflanzliche Note (die ich immer noch nicht identifizieren kann), sind deutlich dezenter vorhanden und ergeben somit ein runderes Gesamtbild. Die Verdünnung empfinde ich als unnötig, fällt jedoch erstaunlich wenig auf und trägt dazu bei, dass es fast schon ein Easy-Sipper sein könnte. Lecker, spannend und vor allen mal (zumindest für mich) mal etwas anderes. Man darf eben nie aufhören, auch vermeintlich bekanntes neu zu probieren!
