    Perfekt für Cocktails.

    one of the best white blended rums on the market and one of the best daiquiri rums ever. this one was by the way the inspiration for the CDI tricorne which is even a tad more awesome mMn 🤤😏

    Aromat: owoce, toffi, rozpuszczalnik, ananas, wiśnia w amaretto, winogrona, odrobina tektury, śliwki, cynamon, orzeczy, wanilia, owoce leśne, imbir, banany Smak: gładki, przejrzałe owoce, śliwki, cynamon, pulpa bananowa, gałka muszkatołowa, migdały, wanilia, nektarynki, miód, wosk, winogrona, ananas, taniny, dąb, anyż Finisz: wanilia, przyprawy, migdał, owoce

    Too much of an afterburn straight. Better mixed, but not getting much flavor one way or another.
