9.2/10

Exclusively the classic rum notes of vanilla, caramel, a bit spicy and oak, but excellently rounded off, mild, with a well-integrated light sweetness and creaminess. Even rounder than its "15-year-old" brother, who I already like very much for the reasons mentioned - I partly prefer the simple things if they are well made. It doesn't always have to be 12 different aromas of various rotten fruits, even though that can be fun sometimes ;-). A "session rum," as Steve the Barman likes to say. Drinks: - Neat: 4.5/5 - Rum Cola: 4.5/5

6.5/10

Rum that is pleasant without surprising. On the nose, the classic scents of caramel and vanilla, not very intense, the alcohol perhaps not perfectly integrated. On the palate, the sensations are the same with the addition of a very slight hint of pepper. Finish is quite short. Overall, it is round and pleasant.
