Carefree rum.
Review by Timo Groeger
Kneipe Christiansen's Hamburg Dezember 2025. Und weiter geht die Reise nach Venezuela :) Auch sehr süßlich, aber grad noch im Rahmen. Schokolade, Vanille und Karamell gibt es hier, außerdem etwas Kaffee. Finde ihn aber zu verwässert.
Review by LukaŽiga
6,5:On the nose it is quite sweet with a caramel, toffee, some dark chocolate and a touch of coffee come to the fore. Overall, there it is buttery and quite floral and soft. Rather than any oak it has quite a hit of tobacco, like lot of Spanish style rums... 7:On the palate it is on the sweeter side and smooth as well. It has minimal alcohol burn and once again it shows little signs of oak ageing, notes of milky coffee, vanilla and dark chocolate arise, a bit of spiciness, some caramel and nuttiness. 6,5:The finish is medium with some spice and chocolate/cocoa. This rum offers quite a pleasant experience and is quite well rounded and sippable.🙂
Review by Bert Tronquo
Very sweet, hints of chocolate and toffee. Ok to good to drink neat, will try it with ice at home. Way too sweet with cola. If you can find it for a decent price I would recommend it. Price @home would be 60+ euro wich is way too high on holiday it was 20ish euro... This is a review from last year so from memory, I'll update it when I open my bottle that I brought with me from holiday.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
"It's better than the sugar heavy DRE but there is just so much competition at its price point. I can't really think of an argument to buy another bottle, other than it being extremely cheap when in Spain. Easy going, easy drinking but at the same time safe and a..."Read full review →
