This is a very nice rum from Berry Bros. & Rudd. It has a wonderful nose transferred into a perfectly balanced palate. Palate wise we have a velvety complex taste that changes a bit in the followup sips. Leave for a while to rest so that all flavours can be released. The price to quality on this bottle is extremely good.

Un Caroni de chez Berry embouteillé pour Charles Hofer en Suisse. Un nez marqué par le bois, un bois carbonisé avec du fumé et du fruité aussi. La bouche est tout en ouverture, ample avec des fruits tropicaux, du bois et un côté terreux. La finale est splendide, longue avec des arômes qui se conjuguent et se renouvellent. Une très belle surprise ! A regoûter le plus vite possible.
