Very fruity rum, really very interesting notes. A really great rum, absolutely top for the price!
Review by Anton Krioukov
Delicious combination of Clarendon and Long Pond distillates, finished in cognac. A solid sipping rum.
Review by Michael Janek
vůně jamajska, nasladla, úžasná chuť bohatá, pichlava, paradni
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This one may need a drop of water or two in order to release all the flavours. I'd be willing to classifying this rum as funky, but it is of course from Jamaica so you'd expect that. A very nice well balanced nose and a funky palate with an explosion of flavours. The finish is long, warm and has some spices to it. Price to quality is very good.
Review by Bernardo
The nose appears balanced with lots of fruit, a variety of aromas appear on the palate, much spicier than the nose suggests, long finish with spices.

Good entry Jamaica.
Review by Lutz Lungershausen
06.2024 First impression: very aromatic, clear golden color, clear legs in the glass Nose: wide range of aromas, tropical fruits, esters, wood, vanilla, even some smoke Palate: the alcohol bites first, followed by the barrels of maturation and fruit, complex Finish: medium length, warm, wood, smoke Overall impression: I like the nose better than the palate, pleasant sipper, maybe try it in a punch? 201X? no comments
Review by Galli33
Good daily sipper jamican. Lovely fruit basket paired with grated almonds and some honey with a hint of peppermint. This combination repeats in the mouth, without being any compley at all. The Finish is short-medium long. The alcohol isn’t integrated well, too spicy for 45% only. PLV is very good.

Vůně pěkná, ovocita, chut jemna
Review by Pepeto Neto
Plantation étonnant, légèrement tourbé à la banane caramélisée... enfin pour moi c'est ce qui le caractérise car c'est ce que je sens le plus.

Not really my thing. A bit too sharp
