Very good value for money.
Review by w00tAN
In der Nase würzig und Süß im Mund dann ebenfalls fruchtig und süß. Im Abgang bilde ich mir Schokolade und Vanillenoten ein. Ganz ok aber nichts besonderes.

Der komische Kalender Tag 12 Alles in allem war er ganz o.k. hab viel Vanille und Karamell geschmeckt. Auf Haiti bin ich mal wieder nicht gekommen. Leider sind die Rums aus den alten Jahren alle sehr verwässert.
