“Sehr kräftig. Der Alkohol erstickt alles. Kaum Aroma da und wenn dann nur künstliche gesüßte Aromen. Durch den Alkohol bildet man sich etwas Pfeffer ein, aber kann auch nur die alkoholische Schärfe sein. Sicher eher als Backzutat geeignet. Quasi kein Charakter erkennbar.”

“Un rhum de la série “Niki’s und Arturs Jamaiksnische Aventurien Teil 2”. Un nez fruité avec des fruits jaunes, surtout de la pomme. Une certaine sucrosité apparaît en bouche avec des épices et du bois jeune. La finale est sur les fruits et la sucrosité mais aussi sur les épices et la pomme. Un rhum simple mais équilibré. Peut-être avec ajoût de sucre ?”
