Review by Johannes
Gar nicht so schlecht! Für die wenigen Prozente erstaunlich viel Geschmack mit Schokolade, Mokka, Karamell, Holz, Pflaume. Vorsicht etwas gespannt gesüßt.
Review by Galli33
Interessante kurze Beschreibung! Doch leider kommt dieser Rum mir schwach, verdünnt und vorallem zu süss(nach gezuckert) vor. Auch der Abgang ist relativ kurz und zuckrig. Die Kollegen aus der Fraktion “Zuckerschnute” dürfen aber gerne zuschlagen 🤙🏻 Perfekt auch für Rum Cola 🥹
Review by Timo Groeger
I think this is a Solid Rum. Hast great Notes of dark chocolate and mokka and Karamell. Palate the same, but this Rum is a little bit too sweet, otherwise it would be a 8.0. Good but nothing for Experts;-)
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Klassisches Beispiel für einen Vintage single barrel der höchstwahrscheinlich nach dem solera verfahren hergestellt wurde. Kaffee, Mokka, Rosine, Trockenfeige, Sherry-artige Einflüsse, Leder, gebrannter dunkler muscovado Zucker und dunkle Schokolade. Kann man definitiv trinken, holt mich aber heutzutage nicht mehr ab. Mich würde nicht wundern wenn hier auch Sherry Fässer verwendet worden sind, da die süße und die Viskosität doch sehr auffällig sind...
