Review by Frank
Würzig in der Nase, nicht sehr intensiv ob der Verdünnung, aber sehr angenehm. Maggi und etwas Leder. Dunkle Früchte Richtung Brombeere nur nicht so süß. Hat was von Kakao und einer leichten Orangen-Note. Angenehm holzig. Auch am Gaumen wirkt die Verdünnung etwas verwässernd. Bleibt aber würzig-holzig, mit ordentlich Tanninen. Dadurch kommt er salzig-bitter rüber, hat auch was von alter Pappe. Wirkt etwas säuerlich, wie abgestandener Rotwein. Hinten raus Muskat. In der Nase doch besser als an Gaumen. Könnte mehr abv vertragen...
Review by Andi
Bissi dünne aber ansich natürlich kein schlechter Rum. Leider ist für mich da irgendein Fehlton drin. Kann das nicht genauer spezifizieren, irgendwie säuerlich/vergoren. 🤷🏻♂️ Ich habe ihn noch mal verkostet und kann immer noch nicht identifizieren, was mich da persönlich stört.
