#5056 26.10.2024 Nice afternoon at Politiken Hus at an event by whisky.dk Nose Sweet, cinnamon light wood, faint tannins, light earthy, raisin, spice, faint coffee, light anise, light caramel. Palate Balanced, complex, wood, light tannins faint smoke, dried fruit, light ginger, light orange, light earthy, light caramel, faint leather, light anise . Finish Long, balanced, complex, dried fruit, light caramel, faint coffee, light anise, light ginger. This is the best Cuban rum I've tried so far. Very well balanced and complex with a little bite. If I had the money I would have bought the last bottle

Diamantovaný adventní kalendář RFC 2025 Některé tyto staré Kuby jsou velmi zajímavé, ale tady je to velmi sladké. Až by člověk přemýšlel, jestli soudruzi něco nepřidali. Příjde mi to až nepřirozeně sladké.

Ve vůni i chuti sladkost a kořenitost, převažuje skořice
Review by Pavel Spacek
Bitter, full of molases. But the rum taste is weak. Typical aged Cuba.
