Review by HenryL
Pleasant smell, for me dominates a fresh note paired with wood and some fruit.An incredible mouthfeel, super soft and pleasantly oily. Fruity notes are in the foreground in the taste, out the back comes some menthol to it.The nose is good, the taste the hammer!
Review by Jindrich Strobl
Exellent! Strong, bold with Madeira hint. I like that.
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Madeira rum. obviously loads of madeira flavours, baking spices, tannins, dried red fruits. Very thick flavoured. Simply lovely.

Didn't love the blanc but really works with a bit of age.
Review by Lucas Scrivener
Approachable rum for all drinkers, a touch green without being funky and sweet without giving you a cavity.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
grandiose Madeira Rum!on the nose dark dark chocolate and mint, plus red berries, vanilla and caramel cookies. very tasty!taste then again cocoa, discreet mint, roasted pecans, pepper and in the finish everything goes in the direction of fruit bread with dried fruit but also a few exotic fruits like mango and papaya over. all Accompanied by a light menthol freshness and not too much wood. very nice!
