Fruity and technical in nosing Nicely technical with a bit of fruit wood and tobacco on the palate Medium to long warm finish with lot of technical notes Alcohol is well integrated To me, it's an awesome bottle fot the price
Review by cigares
A surprising nose of varnish and banana with a hint of menthol. The menthol is repeated on the palate with vanilla and spices. Like baked apples. Medium length, with spices and more menthol and a taste of mouthwash. Nice overall balance, quite opposite flavors but nevertheless coherent. I like it. Tasted again and I confirm, a very fine rum.
Review by Jacques etdom
Très fruité, fruits bien murs, une pointe mentholée, un côté pâtissier. De l ananas en finale. J aime beaucoup ce côté de ma jamaique (sans ce marqueur banane flambée que je n apprecie pas). La profondeur s amplifié après 2 - 3 mois d aeration de la bouteille. Vraiment un super rapport qualité prix.

Review by Amit Bentabou
Very spicy, almost like an Allspice Dram. Nice rum for the colder days.
Review by ramzi
Very entertaining and complex. Heavy body, spices end fruits . Very nice kiking and round clarendon.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
In the nose first surprisingly fruity and filigree of grape, honeydew melon, mirabelle and papaya, then comes baking spice and mint with menthol, as well as some cedar wood.

Un embouteillage très bien fait 👌🏻
Review by Morgan Garet
Nez qui démarre au top avec la banane et la vanille et surtout un côté pâtissier que je retrouvre rarement avec les jamaicains. Ensuite le vernis vient relever l'ensemble. En bouche, rien à voir avec le nez car j'attaque sur un léger côté fumé et poivré/pimenté. Ensuite cela change et revient sur les fruits tropicaux, la vanille, le vernis mais surtout le menthol domine secondé par le piment (trop). Finale assez longue sur le menthol, et la banane.
Review by Thunderbird
The nose is pleasantly soft, sweet and fruity, the palate with light wood, fruit and vanilla... all very restrained, alcohol very well integrated to the finish comes surprisingly a grassy herbal note! A well made intereRum
