    Had to correct me "up", it takes a few "minutes". Very tasty!

    Auto-translated

    Heute war beim Tasting das erste, was mir direkt in meine Geschmacksknospen gesprungen ist, dieser intensive Geschmack von Thahiti-Vanille, dann gesellt sich noch so eine minzige Eukalyptusnote dazu, die auch im Abgang sehr präsent ist und irgendwas erinnert auch hart an Agricole - das Ding ist einfach Hammer - ich hatte bis jetzt keinen Rum im Glas, der so viele unterschiedliche Gesichter hat von dreckik bis floral und mit ein bisschen Wasser lässt sich sogar Weißbier rausschmecken ! Die einzige Schwachstelle, die dieser Rum für mich hat, ist, dass er einen Ticken runder sein könnte. Ich bin echt geflasht von dem Teil :3

    First impression at the HanseSpirit:Fulfills exactly the expectations I had and whose fulfillment I had hoped.Fruity, oily, pleasant workshop aromas...Nachtasting follows.So, and now again in peace at home:Nose: totally pleasant, spicy-fruity, with this special oily texture, which together with pencil shavings and some varnish or glue reminiscent of the fumes from a precision engineering workshop. Interesting also an intense yogurt note that underscores the subtle fruity sweetness. In fruit here gooseberry with lime together with canola honey. The over 60% is very well integrated here. 86Palate: initially that oily, artificial attack again, slightly salty-bitter, with pencil mien. Slightly resinous and something like polish to it. The fruit is again reminiscent of gooseberry, this time with lime zest. Also, the yogurt note comes through clearly again. I really like it. 84Must correct the rating from yesterday significantly upwards. Now 85 instead of 80. Very nice Fiji profile!

    Auto-translated

    Angenehmer Fiji-Rum mit spannendem Profil! Im Gegensatz zu einigen anderen Abfüllungen aus dem Inselstaat weniger Säure, dabei aber trotzdem das markant künstlich-kunststoffartige Profil von vergorenen Früchten. Dazu eine vegetable Note, die an Gurke erinnert und bei mir Assoziationen von einem leckerem vegetarischen Gericht am Sandstrand auf Fiji hervorruft. Irgendwie catcht mich Fiji immer wieder und diese Abfüllung macht mir ebenso Freude!
