Endlich mal wieder ein Sancti Spiritus… Nase: mit nur 45% nicht so treibend wie ich es sonst gewohnt bin. Dennoch schön komplex. Würzig-Zitrusfruchtig. Tatsächlich süßliche Zitrone mit frischer Limette und grünem Apfel. Geht deutlich Richtung Spülmittel, aber nicht unangenehm. Hat auch etwas leicht florales mit Kamille. Hinten raus milde Vanille. Erinnert mich übrigens an alte Beenleigh Abfüllungen. Gaumen: leider etwas flach. Kommt wenig fruchtig, eher salzig und bitter. Zitronenschale ist da. Wieder etwas, das mich an Seife oder Politur erinnert. Eine Mischung aus Nelke und Kümmel kommt hinzu, was sich auch bis in den Abgang zieht. Von einem 20 Jahre alten Sancti hätte ich mehr erwartet. Wieder einmal ist festzustellen, dass eine Verdünnung der Tod fast jeden Rums ist. Schade!

Avg Rating 7.1/10 over 610 Rums

Cuba taught the world to drink rum light. This is the island that gave us the Daiquiri, the Mojito and Bacardi, and the smooth, column-distilled Spanish style that became the most popular rum on earth. Today its rum is entirely state-run and shut out of the United States, yet Havana Club still ranks among the Caribbean's biggest brands.
