Review by rum_sk
I have got a bottle as a birthday present from a friend and when I tasted it for the first time I really did not like it I thought that this will go straight into drinks or I will leave it to my wife (she likes it). On the second try it is not any better :D I mean it is not that bad but not great either. Nose- vanilla, sweetness, cocoa and lot of alcoholic odour. Taste- vanilla, sweetness, dark chocolate and cocoa. Maybe a little fainted coffee taste. Big negative is that the taste is very diluted, very faint taste. Short aftertaste. This will be fine in drinks & cocktails but it is not worth drinking it neat.
Review by Sebastian Kornett
Zwar mild aber hat Aroma mäßig nichts zu bieten. Abgang ist fast garnicht vorhanden.
Review by Montana
Ein würziger, leicht süßer Geruch, etwas Schärfe vom Alkohol, auch etwas Vanille und später auch Kokosnuss. Der Geschmack ist ziemlich leicht, etwas Süße und Alkohol, ansonsten nicht viel mehr. Der Nachklang ist eher kurz.
