    I use this one for a normal rum cake with berries. Very good flavours after baking both on the nose and palate.

    One is greeted by a strong ethanol aroma with caramel. On the palate, fruits and some almond dominate. Pure he does not convince me, is more suitable for Cuba Libre. The price / performance ratio is right, however.

    Normalni lehky rum na leto spis do drinku a peceni. Na bezne piti to moc neni. Silne etanolove aroma s mandlemi, orechy. Ke grilovani a vecernim sezenim u ohne proc ne , zacatecnikum to udela radost.

    So, the first time I smelled it I got immediatelly hit by strong ethanol, then it became weaker and the rum gives a bit of aroma, mostly some light smells of fruit and flowers. The taste... a bit weird. At first quite nice, then it burns and thwn my mouth cooled down. Not very sweet. I was able to locate the almond note, but couldnt identify the rest. Definitely interesting and it cost 11€, but not the best. Drinkable, but not very pleasant. PS: After the residue in my glass dried, it smelled exactly like walnuts. At least that :)
