Very delicious rum. It‘s a sweet one with some impact of the barrel and roasted nuts. The alcohol is integrated very well.

8.4/10

A very nice release and they did really well when it comes to integration of the ABV. I'd say it comes of as a mild rum with nice fruity flavours complemented by spice, wood and lovely toffee.

It's not my kind of rum, but I love the intense baking spice profile about it.

Velmi příjemný rum s dobře integrovaným alkoholem. Ve vůni i v chuti vanilka, karamel, cukrovinky, trocha dřeva a spáleného cukru. Není to nejzajímavější rum na světě, ale vše spolu velmi dobře funguje.

Sample taken from the Kursch stand at the Pueblo del Ron in Nuremberg. Nice bourbon sticky nose with caramel. No further surprises on the palate, but everything is very solid. If you like bourbon, you'll like this too.
