The weird advent calendar day 13 Phew Nose reminds me of arrack or some weird stuff. There's something floral... after a few minutes some fruit (I can't exactly identify it). Very alcoholic, either the alcohol is incredibly poorly integrated or it has well over 50%. I know nothing comparable. Aftertaste first bitter then comes a taste I know but again can't name... All in all somehow not bad but also somehow not particularly tasty for me.

I like it quite a bit, even though the alcohol feels very dominant. But I can't quite grasp it... Every time I put my nose into the glass it smells different, sometimes like a Clairin, sometimes towards Mhoba, then again more like Jamaica in the empty glass.

Nose is fruity sweet and floral, Gin? No, it's definitely rum. Maybe I'm still too sick but from the nose I'm curious; I like it. In the mouth it gets a bit rougher, not bad but the alcohol is clearly noticeable. But hey, it's almost 70%. Has a peculiar taste (nut? Candy?) that I can't place. Leaves a kind of fur on my tongue. Clearly not a burner neat but also not as bad as a Bacardi.
