Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Absolut solider mixing batavia arrack aus Bali. Für 20€ absolut fair bepreist und außerordentlich hochwertig im Vergleich zu anderen 20€ rums. Top für daiquiri, Mojito etc! Nur der Alkoholgehalt könnte etwas höher sein. Schöne süße obwohl nachgemessen definitiv ungezuckert.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Fruity fruit, fresh and arracky. A lot going on here on the nose, as you would expect from Arrack. A little smoked bacon is also present. Surprisingly sweet on the palate, although unsweetened. Not expected but very fitting. Then very fresh, grassy and with the typical estery Arrack aromas. However, it somehow lacks tinder and pressure in terms of alcohol content. We'll see how it mixes, but I'm afraid it will be a little too flat. I'll update accordingly here. Addendum 1: Unfortunately, there is not much of the bacony arrack notes in the spiced version. Addendum 2: Super fruity in the mojito, harmonizes well with the mint
Review by Émile Shevek
On the nose ripe tropical fruit, flowers, spices, eucalyptus and a sour note on the finish. On the palate fruit(banana?) and dry spices, but without depth or character.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Nusa Cana: Indonesian rum blended in the Netherlands. Initially almost emptied into a planter (everything goes into a planter!). We tested it for science in Ti'Punch. Passable, but at 37.5%, not enough wattage and taste for a Ti'Punch. After half a sip in pure form, it was thrown onto the lawn. Had to keep the snails away from the salads, this should do the trick. 🤞
