Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Though this is a good rum I still prefer the cask strength version. The flavour profile is slightly different from its brother, but lacking some good legs to stand on. Fruity, herbal and spices are pretty well balanced with some mocha and chocolate. Again pretty good but it shouldn't have been watered down.
Review by Giorgio Garotti
A bit disappointed considering the expectations I had.. The reduction so low in grade really flattens it out the taste of the rum!
