“Another sweet release. This one has a light nuttiness to it and some wood. A very light and easy drinkable rum that should be really good for beginners.”

“Musste hier um einiges nach unten korrigieren. Er schmeckt einfach nur künstlich. Nachdem ich ihn damals nur aus der Erinnerung heraus bewertet habe, muss ich ihn einfach herunterstufen. Liegt wohl auch daran, dass ich in letzter Zeit richtig gute samples bekommen habe. Ich nehm ihn jetzt nur noch um ihn in den Latte Macchiato oder Ristretto zu schütten um Zucker zu sparen.”
