Review by Andi
I would have expected something sweeter. I find him already really round and quaffable.
Review by Christoph
Untypical Dom. Rep. rum. The finish is very present.

Catch-up Rum Depot Tasting.
Review by Richard Krupa
Less sweet than the others (tokaji, pinot noir and recioto), warm finish
Review by Johannes
Geschmacklich eigentlich gute Ansätze, aber ich verstehe leider nicht, warum man den Rum so süßen muss…
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Nothing special a little too much wine influence and too sweet...

Expert review by The Dunder Hut
"What a sweet and unnecessary rum. All good qualities are drowned in a frenzy of caramelly sugar, vanilla and a weird note i assume is the marsala. Boy does no one should have a need for that. Really dissapointing..."
