Wow wow wow, eine wirklich schöne Abfüllung, hat mir sowohl pur, als auch als Mixer sehr gut gemundet. Die Mischung zwischen dem Monymusk und dem New Yarmouth sind meiner Meinung sehr gut ausbalanciert so das einer den anderen nicht wirklich überdeckt.

Für den Alkoholgehalt erstaunlich gut trinkbar. Geschmacklich allerdings wenig komplex, ggf. liegt dies aber auch schlichtweg am hohen Alkoholgehalt: Tropische und gelbe Früchte, etwas Ester, leider dominiert der Monymusk Anteil geschmacklich. Zum pur trinken eher umspannend, ggf. für Cocktails?

Wow, this one is the hammer and it needs to rest for a while before giving it a go. Once properly rested it's an intense and fresh fruit cocktail vith some spices and varnish/polish. Price to quality is very good in my mind.

Wow, der hat ganz schön Power. Die 75,2% merkt man natürlich schon, aber für das junge Alter doch sehr gut eingebunden. Sehr schönes Fruchtbouquet aus Ananas, grüner Banane und Zitrusfrüchten. Bin Mal gespannt wie es sich im Daiquiri macht.

My first try with a high ABV % back in 2021. This is really tasteful and not completely overpowering despite the high ABV. Though some rest before consuming would be recommended. Notes of fresh fruits, molasses and that jamaican funk

Alkohol ist echt erstaunlich gut eingebunden, aber trotzdem fehlt es mir an Geschmack. Man merkt den Monymusk-Anteil. Nur New Yarmouth wäre mir lieber gewesen.

No rum is more imitated than Jamaican rum. This is the home of funk, the fruity, overripe-banana intensity that drinkers call hogo, made in the biggest pot stills outside Irish whiskey. When the rest of the Caribbean moved to the column still, Jamaica kept the pot still as its house style, and that stubbornness is exactly why its rum is so prized today.
