Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
Schöner Rum für alle Einsteiger. Gutes Preis- Leistungsverhältnis.
Review by Montana
Ein süßes Aroma, schwach alkoholisch und scharf, leichte Fruchtanklänge. Ein angenehm süßer Geschmack, leicht ölig im Mund, leicht fruchtig, etwas Honig. Der Abgang ist sanft und mittellang, dabei recht süß.
Review by rum_sk
Revisiting after more than a year. Initial score 82 downgraded to 75. Overall still very pleasant rum eventhough its sweetened foursquare. Predominant is vanilla with milk chocolate, also a fudge or polish caramel candies called krowka in the taste and nose provides some hints of it too. Overall I think the people who seek sweet rums will love this one. I am a weirdo I like both sweet rums, but also the other side of spectrum such as ester rums such as hampden or monstrosities like paranubes. Revisiting: Direct comparison with 18 Solera from AM. This one is better, more flavourful, but also much sweeter. It does not feel artificial that much but lets say it is overly sweet so I am pulling few points down. Otherwise, really good one.

Ist ganz gut, aber auch nicht total mein Geschmack.
Review by Sebastian Kornett
Wurde definitiv mit Zucker nachgeholfen. Hat nicht viel zu bieten. Kann man seinen Freunden anbieten, die rum Neulinge sind.
Review by heckto🥃
Ein milder Einsteigerrum. Karamell, Honig, Vanille in der Nase. Am Gaumen Schokolade und Banane. Ist jetzt keine Geschmacksexplosion und wenig komplex aber trotzdem ein solider Süßer mit ordentlichem Preis/Leistungsverhältnis.
Review by Schnapsschuesse
Ganz seltsame Mischung aus Milschschokolade, dumpfer Frucht und einer ranzigen Note. Sample ist alt, aber nicht offen gewesen. Am Gaumen viel zu süß, vanillig und trotzdem alkoholisch scharf. Mag zwar gerüchteweise ein Foursquare sein, habe ich aber noch nie in so schlecht und dann verschlimmbessert erlebt.

Ziemlich süß, zu flach
Review by JFehr
Flach und süß
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This is a rum in the cheaper end of the spectrum. Also a sweet rum, not to sweet and probably a very good starter rum. The nose comes off sweet from honey and molasses and descends into primarily vanilla with a hint of chocolate. The palate is sweet with some roasted banana, vanilla and cherry. There is a bit of creaminess to it. The finish is medium long and oily, sweet and vanilla dominates.

Zu süß, zu schwach.
Review by Richard Krupa
Na pohodu rum, neurazil, ale nicim nezaujal naoslinil. Neco na styl diplo reservy
Review by Michael Schillheim
Angenehm zu trinkender, typisch gesüßter Einsteigerrum. In der Nase noch sehr langweilig, bietet er dann aufgrund der Zuckerung am Gaumen ein wenig mehr Profil. Für zwischendurch ganz nett oder als Begleitung zum Bier.
Review by Pavel Spacek
Sweet mild infused
