    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.

    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.

    A very good white Mhoba, which I primarily use for mixing. The herbal aromas are very evident here and of course the esters, which are not to be sneezed at.
