Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This was a very and I mean a very nice surprise. I rarely sip white rums, but this one brought me over. A wonderfully balanced 3 year old white, which presents itself with a wonderful nose and a surprise to your palate. A nice warm finish with fruits, spice and a bit of flowers to it. Stays in your throat and nose for a long time after sipping. Definitely one I'd recommend rum lovers to try and sip.
Review by Christian Rudt
Somewhat flowery nose and lots of green tones. You have to like it. I like it.

Clean, light agricole, close to mid tier Martinique.
Review by Steffmaus🇩🇰
An interesting agricole from a rum Christmas calendar a few years ago. It is a good sipper, but I could see this in a cocktail. In the nose, no doubt this is sugarcane, but also acidy hints. In the notes I got some spices, licorice and a floral aftertaste
Review by Christoph
Reminds me of Macronesian Gin (volcanic spring water) in its clarity and gives a slightly dirty, vegetable flavor with cucumber and olive like in some Clairins in the finish. Agricole through and through, slightly sweet and very mild in taste. Super fresh nose.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
einer der schönsten & bezahlbarsten Agricoles überhaupt. erinnert stark an guten peruanischen pisco. im ti Punch kommt die Traubennote richtig schön durch.

Gras Würzig kräftig etwas zu einseitig

This is definitely not for me.

Manque un peu de concentration alcoolique malgré les 50% d’alcool.
Review by Lennart Hofeditz
Einfach nicht mein Fall, da zu viel Olive durchkommt.
Review by Daniel
Zuckerrohr, Vanille, Tabak, leicht alkoholisch. Alkohol kommt deutlich zum Vorschein, teilweise scharf. Zuckerrohr, florale Noten und Obstler erkennbar. Kurzer, unscheinbarer Abgang. Hat einen deutlichen Charakter, aber nicht so mein Fall.

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
"All the flavour is delivered in just the right amount and I would imagine this would work very nicely in cocktails and in a Ti Punch. Its flavourful but has good balance. It's almost as if it has "checked" itself to deliver enough flavour without throwing itself off balance or..."Read full review →
