"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!"
"Wow, what a slap in the face! The whisky rum mix is crazy! To sum up, my tasting notes: Nose: Smoky, Phenolic Mouth: Peat, Smoke, Intense, Dry, Bacon Finish: Peat, Smoke, Tropical fruit"
"I just can't do anything with whiskey finishes. However, this one is well done and fits the concept."
"Ashtray, in smell, in taste in everything. I've never had anything smokier. The expression of the cask in this case is very, very intense. Super fiji, super plantation. Even after ten minutes, you get the feeling that you've just finished smoking"
