Review by Tim
Wenn man diesen Rum pur trinkt, muss man sich auf ein besonderes Erlebnis gefasst machen. 78% und sehr esterlastig, mit allen bekannten Nebenaromen, die man mögen muss. Extrem intensiv, vor allem im Mund. Ohne Lagerung bei dieser hohen Prezentzahl für mich wenig sinnig.
Review by Kieron Wood
Tasted 23-06-2024 Nosing Heavy grass notes mixed with nail varnish and acetone . Slight peach and tobacco but that could be the esters Tasting This is a high ester alcohol rum so the taste just gets smashed by the percentage of alcohol .. weirdly as the pallets adjusts to the high proof you do get some apple and nuts taste ... This is an experimental rum that I think could struggle through the whole bottle even in cocktails ....
