Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
05.01.2019 A very nice tasting event where 8 I met new local rum nerds. Notes. Light in colour. Nose: wood, roasted, dried fruit, chocolate, coffee, marzipan. Pamate: lightly oily, wood, roasted, spice, marzipan, caramel, sweet. Finish: medium to long, wood, medium dry, nutts, chocolate, dried fruit.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
tasty but also somewhat unspectacular Nicaragua cask strength rum. typical notes of creamy cappuccino, pear, mango and roasted nuts, could be a little more complex overall but is really tasty and one of the few decent Nicaragua single casks.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
Read full review →It's punchy. It's certainly not a light Cuban style "ron". Maybe an almost Caroni like note to it -slightly industrial. Another positive addition to the Kill Devil range. If you want to try a Cuban rum stripped bare (rumour has it wine and vermouth is often added to the aguardientes)...
