Nachdem ich mich jetzt durch einige Rums durchprobiert habe, ist der Ron Malteco 15 Jahre zu meinem aktuellen Liebling geworden. Ihn prägt eine leichte angenehme Süße, die nicht zu aufdringlich ist. Jedes mal wenn ich ihn trinke, entdecke ich eine neue Facette. Mal mehr nach Toffee oder Schoko, mal nach Karamell oder Vanille. Er hat eine angenehme Würze und ist relativ mild, nur eine leichte, aber angenehme Schärfe, die keinesfalls alkoholisch wirkt. Für meinen Geschmack eher weniger fruchtig. Aber das alles ist ja wie immer Geschmacksache. Für mich persönlich eine klare Empfehlung!
A great fruity rum. Smoky notes with caramel and vanilla. I like it slightly better than the 10-year-old, as it is even softer and smokier. Has a nice balance and complexity. absolutely recommendable👍
Auto-translatedC'est pour l'instant mon Ron préféré. Un régal, à la fois doux et épicé. Il est vraiment à part, selon moi. Et son prix est vraiment top. En conclusion, je suis ravie de ce Ron d'exception 👌
Nicht besonders komplex aber extrem smooth und drinkable.
