Very sweet and mild. Fine for beginners.
Auto-translatedAngenehme süße trifft auf Orangen, Aprikosen und etwas zitrus. Ein tolles Getränk!
This rum is very sweet and tastes somewhat artificial, reminiscent of Dr. Oetker Rum Aroma. When retesting, the artificial aroma was almost non-existent, which significantly enhances the rum.
