Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Lovely delicate Mount Gay. Heavy on the yellow fruits. Light toffee/caramel/floral notes. Tasted on Whisky Rum aan Zee 2025. Would love to try again.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Ungewöhnlich floral und blumig für einen mount gay, eher gelbe Früchte und leicht pflanzlich. Das Cognac Fass kommt definitiv voll zur Geltung. Lässt sich insgesamt sehr angenehm trinken aber haut mich nicht vom Hocker.
Review by Chrischi78
Verkostung auf dem German Rum Festival 2025. Schöner Blend, weich vollmundig mit dem klar zu identifizierenden Mount Gay Profil. Sticht aber nicht heraus. Der aufgerufene Verkauspreis steht dazu in einem schlechten Verhältnis
Review by DomM
Very nice expression out of MG. The cognac cask did some good work here enhancing the MG profile with some additional fruits on the nose and palate. Feels way more mature compared to its young age. While I like this very much, pricing is a bit high.
Review by cool runnings
Unfortunately overpriced and too young like many previous release.
