    Milder nose than in the taste, Yoshiharu remains true to the Encrypted profile with the earthy here increases and especially in the smell of sake is more present than in the MK2. The finish is very refreshing on the one hand but also dry which you have to like.

    Mal was ganz anderes. Ich hab hier eine nussig-fruchtig-würzig-holzige Nase. Marone mit dunklen Beeren und Trauben. Irgendwie leicht muffig, alte Rosinen, altes Zeitungspapier, alter Tabak. Hat aber auch etwas von dunklem Honig. Hat was von einem alten Rotweinfass. Am Gaumen wieder nussig-fruchtig-würzig, und leicht säuerlich-salzig-bitter. Ich finde wieder Marone und deutlich Sesam. Kirsche? Rotwein wird intensiver, dazu dann etwas Muskat. Im Abgang etwas Rotwein aber auch irgendwie etwas grünes sowie orange. Den muss man wohl öfter probieren um ihn ganz zu entschlüsseln, aber er gefällt!

    I’m glad that I now have a bottle of my own of this rum. - Today I got to enjoy this rum with rum nerds that actually enjoy this.
