Review by Timo Groeger
Quite okay so far. Woody, coffee and esters on the nose. On the palate it comes across as very alcoholic, even the light coffee and chocolate notes can't mask this. Average, nothing more.

Review by Mateusz
A little too one-dimensional. Sweet and not complex
Review by Guillaume Stanislav
Un peu brut au premier abord, se dévoile en 3eme bouche.
Review by Tomáš Šárocký
The smell was very smokey, without just a little bit of sweetness in a sense of some caramel or similar. The taste is petty strong and probably I'd mistake it easily for whiskey if I don't know it's rum - smokey, woody and earthy.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
"It certainly lets the rum which naturally occurred in the barrel shine much more than Zacapa. You don't get the feeling you are drinking something which is additive laden. Good, if not groundbreaking rum at a relatively inexpensive price point."Read full review →
