    Vůně je dost zastřená, jemně ovocná. Nechal jsem to minimálně 30min odstát, ale nic moc se nerozvinulo. Zase je to i v chuti takové zastřené, až moc jemné. Spíš bych tipoval, že to má kolem 43%. Celkově vzato pohodový rum, ale očekávání jsem měl úplně jiné.

    Co rict guyana je moje krevni skupina. Vune velmi prijemne dřevitá, ovocná, karamel a po delsim odstati ve sklenicce se ukaze cokolada. Doporucuji mit delsi dobu v ustech pote se ukaze kořeni, ovoce, mirne slanost, trosku lekorice. Zaver je mirny , krasne jde citit drevitost.

    12.09.2020 Nice evening with family and a few friends. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Spicy, wood, fruity, dried fruit, plum, light vegetal, faint caramel. Palate Light spicy, wood, light roasted, fruity, light salt, plum, light anise, light tannins. Finish Wood, roasted, faint chocolate, light licorice, plum, raisin, faint floral. Extra note Needs to rest for a long time to release all the flavours.

    the taste reminds me of soap and that's not what I want to smell in rum :-(
