Review by Timo Groeger
Und den nächsten SBS Mauritius hinterher. Eigentlich kein großer Unterschied erkennbar zwischen 2008 und 2009. Hab glaub ich auch die Fotos vertauscht :-) Hier auch wieder viel Holz und Kräuter/Minze am Gaumen. Lecker.

Hier ein sbs aus Mauritius von 2008 mit 54 Prozent. Ich finde diesen Rum sehr gelungen. Man schmeckt direkt Leder Leder und auch das holzige Fass welches auch im Geruch dominiert. Meiner Meinung nach ein top Rum.
