Review by Gil Firth
10 ml sample How many of us have tasted something like this? Both in terms of age. Also the vintage. Also the Sammaroli stock. This rum is very complex, a bit too dark in terms of sweetness. Leather. Tobacco very very chocolaty and earthy. There are some impressions of cigar which is cool. I sat with the sample for over an hour! Great fun but hard to fully appreciate something like this with ten ml. Experience.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Another historical rum with a nice colour and fruityness to it. Spicy and warm on the palate with a medicinal touch. The empty glass had stronger licorice and some tobacco notes.
