8.0/10

Balancing between spicy barrel notes and dried fruits, while the alcohol is pretty well integrated.

Shop visit Rum Paradise Hamburg April 2025. I like this Plantation much better. Very fruity on the nose (grape and coconut). Vanilla is also noticeable. On the palate, vanilla and coconut are very dominant.

7.0/10

Dried fruits, a bit of coconut, quite aromatic (maybe even a bit too much), you can clearly feel the malbec barrel which brings something different. For the price, a good everyday rum.

Expert review by Zucker und Zeste

Very fruity and well balanced. Alcohol is not perfect but well integrated. Despite the still quite young base rum by the double aging process beautiful barrel flavors are present.
