I'm really surprised that it took forever until this rum landed here times in the database, let alone has not yet been evaluated.Selber I have until jetz also only a few SBS bottlings from Guyana as a comparison and a few other things - however, I was extremely disappointed in the SBS stories, since I lacked any complexity in the finish and also before and I would have expected much more at nem bottle price in the range of 100-200 money.This one, on the other hand, has plenty of it and a really long finish.At the beginning, a sweet aroma with the typical sweet wood-caramel-guyana notes floods the mouth, then suddenly quite a lot of herbal notes unfold, then tobacco and leather are addedand almost reminds you of Ricola herbal candies, if who knows - and then it just stays in the mouth and you have a lot of fun to deal with the flavors.I think this is a really tasty rum that deserves much more attention :3

Nordlichtertreffen 2025: In der Nase würzig fruchtig vor allem Kirsche. Im Mund fruchtig komplex mit Tee und Kräutern angereichert. Abgang lang mit Noten von Tee und Pfirsich aber auch hier wieder Kirsche. Alkohl ist exzellent eingebunden! Für mich ein super Guyana Zum Top Preis

In der Nase schön fruchtig-karamellig. Mit etwas Wasser kommt der Bleistift dazu. Am Gaumen dann schön fruchtig, auch wieder karamellig und wieder Bleistift. Insgesamt sehr rund, Alkohol sehr gut eingebunden. Mit etwas Wasser noch mehr Tiefe. Tolles Teil.

A typical, very good 2004 - should probably be an MDXC. Very spicy, lots of licorice, lots of molasses, wood, tobacco, pencil. A little too much licorice for me personally. Many thanks to Max for the sample!
