Review by BTHHo 🥃
This unsweetened rum from Don Q is both round and complex with flavors of caramel and vanilla - a successful flavorful solera rum in my opinion 👍
Review by Richard Krupa
Oak wood, significantly better than don q 7y
Review by R Wehner
Ich hatte in der Nase anfangs eine unangenehme Fehlnote, metallisch, Lösemittel, dann später Holz, Vanille, Karamell, bissel Alkohol; Zunge überraschend wenig komplex, flach, leichte Alkoholschärfe, schlechtes PLV
Review by MoMcGurk
Just a nice flavor. Sweet, oaky, and down chocolate. A bit more burn than o would have hoped, but pleasant straight or mixed.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Extremely thin, watered down and smoky, metallic. Unfortunately, I don't like it at all and, above all, it's never worth 60€. Unfortunately, it's quite a letdown for me and very flat overall. But I wasn't expecting much either...
