Review by Galli33
Interesting short description! But unfortunately this rum seems weak, diluted and above all too sweet (like sugared) to me. The finish is also relatively short and sugary. The folks from the "sweet tooth" faction are welcome to grab it 🤙🏻 Perfect also for Rum Cola 🥹
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Classic example of a vintage single barrel most likely made using the solera method. Coffee, mocha, raisin, dried fig, sherry-like influences, leather, burnt dark muscovado sugar and dark chocolate. Definitely drinkable, but it doesn't grab me anymore nowadays. I wouldn't be surprised if sherry casks were used here too, as the sweetness and viscosity are quite striking...
Review by Timo Groeger
I think this is a Solid Rum. Hast great Notes of dark chocolate and mokka and Karamell. Palate the same, but this Rum is a little bit too sweet, otherwise it would be a 8.0. Good but nothing for Experts;-)
Review by Johannes
Not bad at all! For the few percent, surprisingly much flavor with chocolate, mocha, caramel, wood, plum. Careful, somewhat tightly sweetened.
