"Quite acidic, musty and unfortunately not my cup of tea. There's clearly better rums from Mauritius ... Probably the worst I had so far from Mauritius in the glass. Too bad"
"Mit Coke OK. Aber Pur geht es meinen Lippen nicht runter.."
"Part of the tasting at the estate. This one is probably the best out of the whole set that I tried due to the reasonable 50% of strength, a maximum allowed on Mauritius. It is punchy with floral, earthy and fermentation notes. Some honey like sweetness."
"Interessanter frischer Agricole, eignet sich auch hervorragend für einen „besonderen“ Mojito"
