    Superb, fruity with a nice spicy note. Complex but not too much. Notes of burnt wood and bourbon barrel marking. Good length.

    Nose definitely on the fruit with a very pleasant roundness. On the palate, a woody dimension is added. A nice length in mouth carried by the cane, the liquorice and the dark chocolate. The alcohol is well integrated. For the price, it is an excellent bottle!

    A pleasant rum, with the right degree, greedy but not too much. Just lacks a little depth and complexity.

    The first impression on the nose is one of great freshness. Scents of apple, granny, a touch of pommeau too, tart apple candy at times. There's also a hint of gingerbread and chocolate, all in an agricultural vein. On the palate, it lacks a little complexity, but it's very good. It's also spicier. An easy-drinking rum to which I've been returning with pleasure for some time now. Well done to Barikenn for the cask selection, the work and the price 😃
