Fun fact: "There is a mango plantation next to the distillery, which is said to affect fermentation and flavor development"

8.2/10

Die Nase hat mich anfangs nicht wirklich umgehauen, würde aber mit der Zeit immer besser und der Alkohol und die Schärfe waren weniger präsent. Im Mund dann eine schöne Mischung aus Kirsche und Eukalyptus/Menthol. Erinnert etwas an die Hustenbonbons aus der Apotheke. Allerdings auch noch etwas unausgewogen am Gaumen. Hat aber definitiv Potenzial.

Da ich Vatertag nich losziehen konnte, gibt es heute ein paar Rums. Los geht es mit einem schöne. T.D.L Minze und Menthol in der Nase erkennbar, aber nicht so stark wie bei anderen Abfüllungen. Am Gaumen etwas intensiver, kommt hier noch etwas Holz hinzu.

8.2/10

In der Nase finde ich eigentlich nur Karamell, Holz und ganz leicht etwas Florales. Am Gaumen kommt er dann sehr spanisch daher. Karamell, Holz, leicht pfeffrig und gewürzig, Tannine. Der Alkohol beißt nicht, ist aber auch nicht ganz optimal eingebunden. Minze wenn überhaupt dann nur einen leichten Hauch zu finden. Im Abgang dann erst Karamellsüße und Vanille, anschließend dann wieder Holz und Tannine. Kein schlechter Rum, aber eben auch sehr spanisch. Da gibt es für meinen Geschmack spannendere Abfüllungen.

7.4/10

Solid bottling with typical TDL notes. Somewhat beastly on the finish, however. Mint/menthol are present, but not extreme like other bottlings. I find faint peach on the palate, which I like.
