    Oliver & Oliver? Ein Rum zum Tagesausklang. Ein Kick mehr Schörfe, aber sonst perfekt

    Another nice tasting finished, this time with rums from the Domenican Republic. This is a sweet rum with a lot of vanilla. A very light rum that's easy to drink. Nothing special about this rum but for the price tag a good option.

    A good rum for beginners. Fruity, woody, roasted and not too spicy 😰. I like it as a every day sippin rum.

    Here is a perfect example that longer storage does not always mean better quality. So I like the 18 year old much better than the 23 year old. Simply more coherent and harmonious
