Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
At the price this rum comes at it is a great rum. Also a rum good for beginners and mixer if needed.
Review by HenryL
For 40% very alcoholic sharp. Otherwise, a classic, unspectacular "rum".See but not why I should buy the, there are a lot of better alternatives for the same price.
Review by w00tAN
Very balanced and simply drinkable. Nothing spectacular or memorable, but well suited for an evening glass.
Review by Gregor
Nice aromas but a little flat and short
Review by nick_nick1
Good price-performance ratio. Roughly sharper but still mild.
Review by TheRealBarra
Okay süß im Geruch und Aschenbecher im Geschmack
Review by Pavel Peknica
Ostřejší, alkoholovější, ale není vyloženě špatný
Review by Richard Krupa
Dobry digestiv po obede - vanilka, mandle, marcipan
