Hat mich angenehm überrascht!
Review by AlexM
Guter Rum, mild und rund im Geschmack mit etwas längerem Abgang. Karamell, Holz, eine dezente Süße und etwas Trockenfrüchte in Geschmack erkennbar. Im Abgang vergeht die Süße schnell und ein komplexer, holzig fruchtiger Geschmack erfüllt den Mundraum. Ein 18 Jahre Blend zum genießen.
Review by Korkennase
Dieser Raum bietet eine schöne Nase. Am Gaumen recht angenehm, die Schärfe ist gut eingebunden und unterstreichet den Charakter. Der Abgang ist kurz, dennoch leicht trocken. Ein guter Vertreter seiner Art🥃.
Review by Timo Groeger
Zu allererst, verdammt lecker dieser Rum. Man schmeckt eine leichte Sessel raus, aber genau passen, so wie es sein soll. Schmeckt leicht nach Vanille und Karamell. Für einen 40%igen ein verdammt starker Rum.
Review by cigares
Un rhum de 18 ans avec un nez avec des pruneaux et des fruits secs en plus du caramel. La bouche fait la part belle à des notes de rôti, de cèdre et de la prune. La finale est assez longue avec du rôti, de la vanille et du cèdre. Un rhum bien meilleur que les 7,8,12 ans car il possède bien plus d’arômes et de complexité.
Review by Julian Würtele
Guter Rum mit kräftiger Schärfe, schwer einzuordnen. Wurde frisch aufgemacht und musste viel atmen. Scharf, aber dennoch leckere Süße und toller Geschmack. Schwierig aktuell einzuordnen, da sicherlich besser als Botucal. Bewertung muss ggf. nachgebessert werden.
