    How does this rum taste?

    The Pot Stilled High Ester Rum from MHOBA distillery in South Africa is a cask strength, overproof rum with an ABV of 65.2%. Distilled in 2019, this white rum is renowned for its intense ester profile, and notes of fresh tropical fruits and solvents. Users appreciate its powerful Jamaican-style nose, with hints of pear, coconut, and vanilla on the palate, and a long, warm finish with lingering tropical sweetness. Some find the intensity overwhelming, but it’s often recommended for mixing and experimenting with cocktails due to its potent flavors and versatility.

    Nez très puissant type jamaïcain et un second nez sur la canne à sucre. Bouche extrêmement puissante qui, une fois de pic de douleur passé, laisse place à une explosion de pâtisserie, pâte brisée et amande. Franchement une révélation !

    Edit: So now, how could it be otherwise, I've tried it as a mixer for a CubaLibre. It's really something different in the glass. I think it can really do something here. Simply delicious. But the points remain the same despite everything, no correction really necessary for me. Mhoba Night Was the last of the 6 different Mhoba. But the tastiest for me today.

    14.04.2021 Relaxing at home with some new samples. Notes Transparent in colour. Nose Intense, glue, ester, banana, overripe, vegetal, light olive, citrus. Palate Intense, oily, ester, light vegetal, fruity, overripe, polish, faint rubber, olive, light salty, citrus. Finish Very long and warm, ester, grass, pineapple, light olive, faint salty, light rubber.

    Mhoba High Ester, ich liebe diese Esterbomben. Natürlich hat man den Ester direkt in der Nase und die tropischen Früchten kommen natürlich auch dazu. Wie gesagt, ist sowas mit Cola echt ein super Sommergetränk. Am Gaumen kann mann dann zusätzlich noch Zuckerrohr schmecken.
