Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
#4551 15.01.2024 Sitting at home relaxing enjoying that my last visits to the hospital for scans etc. came back without any comments so thus far very positive. When this bottle was released the price tag was extremely good compared to what you get. Medium fruity with light roasted wood notes and esters. There is a medicinal touch to the profile but in a good way. The palate is well rounded and oily with some anise in the back. The finish is long with a herbal touch. The empty glass has some licorice, caramel and faint strawberry.
Review by Dr.Django
An interesting Fiji that seems to come from the hospital. Very medicinal, a little dirty and coated with sweet honey and honeydew melon. A great interplay of aromas, which despite its high percentage seems a little flat. This aroma profile is absolutely outstanding!
Review by Martin Ekrt
Poměrně decentní vůně ovoce a sympatických Fiji esterů a chemie. Chuť překvapivě jemná a nasládlá, ale techničnost tam pořád je. Moc pěkný závěr kombinující vanilku, bylinky, chemii, ovoce a plno dalších věcí, které dávají velmi pitelný produkt.
Review by Righrum
It tastes too much medical to receive an high score. Besides that, a good and balanced rum
