„Rum on the side! It smells like fermented molasses with lots of fruit flavors and the palate yo-yo's on the peat, with great length. So the bottle was almost empty, but great product. I don't understand the low scores!“

„If you like to find out, what you can do to a rum through double aging, this is your possibility. This one starts all over with the peaty and smoky note from the Isle of Islay, but is still mixed with the Fiji tropical fruits. Wooden notes as well. This strong impression stays for the taste and the long finish. Are you sure that this it’s really rum, you are drinking? So if you want to broaden your collection of rums and impress your Whisky drinking friends at the same time, get your hands on this 2020 limited edition. Great stuff!“

„Rum with finish in ex-islay / smoky whiskey barrel is usually to be enjoyed with caution and the smoke gladly slays everything. Here just on the border and the rum DNA is still present. I like the mix of smoke and esters or fruit. The longer it breathes, the more the esters come through. Either way, one should have experience with ashtray whiskies.“
