    How does this rum taste?

    Fans love its dessert-like cocoa and coffee character with vanilla-caramel sweetness. Reviewers note it starts soft and round, then opens up over minutes, revealing dark chocolate and cacao depth. Smooth and easy to sip neat—some enjoy it as an aperitif or digestif. With 32 community reviews and building confidence, it’s a growing favorite for sweeter palates, though some find it a bit sweet and not overly complex.

    Une gradation dans le goût avec une évolution de saveurs: tout bonnement exceptionnel !

    Un rhum qui parait assez rond et doux de prime abord, sans réel intérêt, mais qui libère ses arômes au fil des minutes. On a alors accès à des notes de vanille, de caramel et de cacao au fur et à mesure de la dégustation en gardant un goût doux et légèrement sucré ! Siroter et apprécier très lentement ce rhum qui est très riche et très généreux malgré une première impression qui ne fait pas forcément l'unanimité.

    Bonne odeur de café que l on retrouve en bouche se boit bien, ne pas s attendre à un chef d oeuvre mais un spiritueux sympa aromatisé pour un apero ou un digestif

    Très bon rhum du Guatemala bon pour commencer vos dégustation de se pays producteurs de Rhum plutôt riche sans trop vous embarquez dans des goûts trop compliqué à déchiffrer.
