8.6/10

8,5:On the nose, the first impression we get is herbaceous, coppery, with sherry barrel impact and notes like leather, cocoa, dried fruits. On aeration, it becomes sulphurous, sherry barrel still present with dark chocolate, coffee, some pleasant aromas arise with tropical fruits and banana, lime and spicy vanilla, cinammon. 8,7:On the palate, the attack is intense, but tasty with sugarcane juice and fruits like dried apricots, raisins, as the wood is roasted, burnt with caramelized notes, cocoa, mocha, nuts and chocolate, spicy with vanilla and pepper.On oxidation, the rum is slightly sulphurous, fruitier with citrus and red fruits, the cane is herbaceous, mineral, darker with black tea.A very complex palate... 8,6:The finish is long, slightly bitter, dry&furry, the cane is candied, vegetal, earthy with tobacco, the wood is burnt with caramel, leather, nuts, coppery, as the fruits are delicious with dried, citrus tones. Edit:28.6.26

6.2/10

The palate can still convince the best with this Karukera. If it still captivates with fruit, herbs, leather and waxes, the palate loses all along the line. Burnt mocha, wood and pepper, as well as some sulfurous artificial aroma spread unpleasant... the finish is not much better!
