Review by Chrischi78
Ein Einsteigerum ohne grosse Tiefe und Komplexität. Am Gaumen alkoholisch, scharf und vor allem süss und Noten von getrockneten Früchten. Mittellanger Abgang wobei vor allem die Süsse bleibt. Es scheint, dass die 20 Jahre Reifung vor allem kontinental erfolgt ist. Vielleicht als Mixer zu verwenden.
Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
Ein wirklich gelungener Rum der einen guten Übergang vom Einstieg, in die Welt der Fassstärke bietet ohne zu überfordern. Trotzdem kann man viele verschiedene Komponenten wahrnehmen. Für 75 Euro ein gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis..
Review by Johannes
Ganz schön süß, hat Ähnlichkeit mit dem Px Cask. Alkohol könnte besser eingebunden sein. Aber ein netter Sipper.
Review by F.L.O.
Ordentlicher Rum, mit einem Schwung cremigkeit-süße. Aber dennoch nicht (mehr) mein Fall. Guter Einstieg fûr Neulinge in den Cask strength Bereich. Update (2 Monate später): Geht einen Punkt nach oben…mehr ist nicht drin.
Review by David Riek
Eine Granate und das zum Superpreis von 75 Euro, resp. für die Members im Abo erhalten. In der Nase sehr intensiv und fruchtig, zu Beginn "beisst" der Alkohol leicht in der Nase, nach ca. 30min im Blenders-Glas verkostet.
