Review by Schnapsschuesse
Completely gaga what is going on here. Bacon, smoke, lime, fresh sugar cane, lime, spices, fruits...the stuff just smells like the belly of a pirate ship that has just plundered a trading port. Delightfully wacky. Same game then in the mouth, and very dry. Something of mezcal, fruit brandy, smoked bacon, citrus, coriander, a touch of raki, every sip something new. A bit tiring neat - but with acidity and sweetness an absolute firework. Half/half with rum in Mai Tai, as Daiquiri and even simply with Coke. Wild night for advanced.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
best white Batavia Arrack 🤙🏼 necessarily in arrackiri and various arrack based drinks try, but alone pure goes the thing already off like simultaneously mezcal, cachaca and Rhum Agricole!💥🙌
Review by Mateusz
Similar to Rhum agricole, but with a different twist. More on earthy side. Recommended!
Review by Trinkfluencer
Quite its own flavor. Personally, it reminds me strangely slightly of tequila. Otherwise, very full-bodied.
