"Belangloser Guyana mit Noten von Holz, Toffee, ein paar Anklänge von Kräutern und etwas Bitterkeit. Zum Mischen zu dünn und zum Sippen erst Recht. Man hat irgendwie den Eindruck, der Rum wurde so lange gefiltert und runterverdünnt, dass er weich und wenig intensiv schmeckt."
"An off brand Demerara that commits to the bit. Classic brown sugar and toffee notes on the nose, with a standard if mild palate, and a surprisingly strong finish for the proof."
"Ziemlich langweilig"
"Pleasant enough nose. Really a mixing rum and it shows, fairly one dimensional in the mouth with a surprisingly peppery finish. With coke it does well, toffee notes come to the fore and certainly a solid mixing rum if looking for more of that navy style Demerara blend"
