    Another historical rum with a nice colour and fruityness to it. Spicy and warm on the palate with a medicinal touch. The empty glass had stronger licorice and some tobacco notes.

    דוגמית 10 מל כמה מאיתנו טעמו דבר כזה? גם מבחינת הגיל. גם השנתון. גם הסטוק של סאמארולי. הרום הזה מאוד מורכב, קצת כהה מידיי מבחינת מתיקות. עור. טבק מאוד מאוד שוקולדי ואדמתי. יש קצת רשמים של סיגר שזה מגניב. ישבתי עם הדוגמית מעל שעה! כיף אדיר אבל קשה להעריך עד הסוף משהו כזה עם עשרה מל. חוויה
