Sip this one neat and give it a minute — at 59% the alcohol needs time before the dark chocolate, coffee and cocoa come through. Several tasters found it intensely chocolatey but not very complex, with a light, restrained Dominican sweetness and a woody, slightly burnt-sugar finish. One member simply called it "einfach lecker" — tasty, if not surprising.

How does A.F.D. S.B.S Dominican Republic 2006 taste?
Summarized by AI from 24 community reviews.
Chocolate-heavy Dominican sipper, hot when young Most find it a chocolate- and coffee-forward Dominican sipper, tasty and intense but not complex. The recurring gripe: the high ABV isn't fully integrated and needs air.

Can I give a rum 80 points because I find him just delicious ? - I just do it times :PDThe DomRep here is a delicious Spaniard with beautiful cocoa and coffee notes.not particularly complex, but very intense and tastes me with its ABV just super good to wegsippen.

Second tasting: very pleasing but the taste is within the expected range, except in the aftertaste I detect a honey note today (+1) Nose: not very exciting and alcoholic Palate: strongly spicy and quickly changes to bitter, burnt sugar Finish: focus on the barrel Solid Dominican rum without any great special features.

01.11.2019 Den Dansk Rom & Whiskyfestival This was my first visit to this two day event, where everything is included in the ticket. Also the first event where I have seen so many extremely drunk people. This event usually just has what's considered mainstream products, but luckily my friend had the right contacts so for a premium we had our own little collection to go through. Today I get free a free ticket if I want to attend 😊 Not too bad a rum especially thinking about the price tag. Lightly fruity with nice caramel and chocolate. The palate is oily with nice coffee notes. The finish is medium to long and spicy. ABV could have been better integrated.
Review by Johannes
Nice chocolate, barrel, but he could stand a longer storage. Alcohol not top integrated. But not a bad drop!
Review by Christian Rudt
Times an unsweetened, dry Dominican. A little too much alcohol, it takes some time before the aroma carried by coffee and cocoa comes to the fore. Not bad but certainly goes much better 🙂
Review by Filip Šikula
Within the source destination, I am rather surprised. Pleasantly. The nose is intensely chocolatey, with caramel and alcohol. The taste still has a very, very sweet profile, full of chocolate, nuts, coffee, and caramel. Unfortunately, again that alcohol.
Review by Andi
You can feel the typical DomRep sweetness on the palate, but this sweetness is very subtle and restrained.
Review by Alex Kunath
Nice notes of dark chocolate. I liked it!
Review by Boletus
The distillate doesn't have much substance, but it gets a recognizable upgrade from the cask. I admittedly miss a bit of the fruity side in the overall package, but the enormously chocolatey character is impressive and quite tasty.

Quite a decent dram, I have been expecting less. But what’re is mandatory.
