Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Thinking about the price you get a good deal here. Very well rounded and intense rum. In order to release its full flavours you need to rest this rum for at least 15 minutes and I fond that it was best after 30 minutes. The oak is taking the front seat here without being too dominant.
Review by N’ours
A very nice surprise. Perfectly balanced nose between spicy, fruit, and wood. A bit peppery, a note of smoked cocoa. Balanced palate, indulgent. Still the candied fruit, the pepper, a caramelized touch, a bit of mocha. Very long finish for the strength, on wood and oak.
Review by BottleShrimp
A surprising proposal and an interesting bridge between rum and bourbon, which you feel throughout the tasting. A little candy of indulgence and a fairly low proof make it accessible to a wider audience.
Review by Fanou Le Rhumier
A very unique rum due to its maturation. Will delight fans of the style or be hated by others but will not leave anyone indifferent.
Review by Léo Delek
Works very well, Montebello framework with indulgence ++++
Review by Arnaud Faverjon
A somewhat dark Montebello but very interesting, wood, a bit dry, burnt sugar, dried fruits, a nice roundness, a pleasant length, it offers a nice moment without being a monster of complexity.
