Review by Michael Ihmels 🇩🇪
Next up is the Planteray Single Cask from Barbados. On the nose, it smells relatively fruity but also a little like wood and leather. The taste is quite solid, with a little fruit coming to the fore. Quite solid
Review by Martin Ekrt
Čekal jsem další nudu, ale tohle voní zajímavě. Asi to je tím finišem, protože z toho mírně zavání droždí s octem, ale převážuje ovocnost s nějakou cukrovinkou a vínem. Chuť je taky dost zvláštní, že vlastně nevím jestli mi to chutná nebo nechutná. Ta divná jinakost je nakonec za mě spíš k dobru.

Kyselinka na konci, opravdu jak kdybych pil cervene vino, dobre
