Review by Jonas Kofod
Nice and sweet. Not much character beyond that.
Review by w00tAN
Sehr schokoladiger eher süßer Rum aber nicht zu pappig. Schöner Einsteigerrum oder als sipper für den ersten Drink
Review by Mc Pirate
Belle couleur claire et nez très exotique sur la sucrosité, très plaisant au nez. Bouche extrêmement légère, que le fruit jaune, touches exotiques. Finale courte sur le sucre
Review by Stefan Persson
Can’t recommend this rum! It’s produced in a multi column still and I believe the average age of this Solera rum is quite few years. The aroma is very alcoholic. The flavors on the other hand is quite sweet with flavors of vanilla and caramel. The finish is very short.
Review by JonasTh
zachte volle smaak, bloemig, niet super bijzonder. Beetje zachter dan 8y.
Review by Tyler Griffith
Slightly medicinal, short finish. It's drinkable but not something I'm going to choose over others.
