Not too bad but pretty sweet in my mind.
Review by heckto🥃
In der Nase eher unspektakulär: holzig-rauchige Eiche. Am Gaumen wird man von scharfem Alkohol begrüßt, dann kommen Eiche, Schokolade und ein holzig-rauchiges Aroma zur Geltung. Ich habe mir etwas mehr Komplexität versprochen, schlecht ist dieser Rum aber nicht.
