Review by Tim
Mit null Erwartung an diesen Rum gegangen und positiv überrascht worden, weil er relativ kräftige Aromen in Anbetracht der Rahmenbedingungen hat. Die buttrige und lakritzige Seite ist interessant! Im Mund eher dünn, da bleibt nicht viel hängen, wobei andere 40%-Rums noch deutlich schlechter abschneiden. Aber insgesamt solide.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
New white rum from a new distillery in Chiriqui, Panama. Pot still and own sugar cane honey is the name of the game. Vegetable, spicy and hardly any fruity notes, reminds me more of grappa with vanilla and light milk chocolate notes, as well as aniseed and licorice with a slight smokiness. Not really my cup of tea to be honest, although not a bad product.
Review by zabo
Danke crazyforgoodbooze für die Flaschen. Sind echt kein Highlight, bitte nicht ins Portfolio mit aufnehmen. Zum Rum selber gar nicht mal so gut, aber in einem sehr leichten Daiquiri vorstellbar. Mehr aber auch nicht.
Review by Johannes
Wenig Geschmack, viel Neutralalkohol.
Review by primus
Hat ganz viel frisch gebrannte Melasse im Geruch, am Gaumen und im Abgang. Ziemlich mild und bekömmlich, aber gleichzeitig auch etwas fuselig und flach. Das was andere hier als Grappa bewertet haben ist für mich eher eine Ähnlichkeit mit Obstler
Review by DomM
I like the nose in this one as it provides some freshness and vegetal notes. No the palate it is a bit too sweet for my liking with asociations to obstler.
Review by Skyfly
Very planty from nose to finish. It also smells fermented and like yoghurt on the nose. The sugar cane comes to the fore on the palate and it is reminiscent of grappa. Possibly suitable for mixing, but not my cup of tea on its own. However, the alcohol is well integrated.
Review by Leo Krüper
Die Art von Rum, die ich im Sausalitos erwarte. Hat immerhin keine Fehler und auch der Alkohol ist ordentlich integriert. Allerdings könnte das hier auch ein guter Wodka sein. Kaum Geschmack, nichts da.
Review by Christian Rudt
Sehr floral, geschmacklich Richtung Grappa aber auch hier bleibt die Frucht kaum spürbar im Hintergrund. Dazu einfach dünn im Geschmack
Review by Thunderbird
Rum? Damit hat diese Abfüllung für mich wenig zu tun. In erster Linie schmecke ich verdünnten Alkohol mit zarten Aromen. Es erinnert mich eher an Grappa/Obstler. Vielen Dank an @zabo (Jörg) für das Gratis-Sample
