7.7/10

Jemná karamelová vůně se sušeným ovocem, vanilkou a trochou ořechů. Je znát i víno. V chuti velká, ale chuťově vyvážená porce karamelu. Nádech kávy a spáleného dřeva. V závěru karamel, sušené datle a káva. Fajn kousek.

7.1/10

Very nice guyana, typical Demerara rum which is a little bit on a sweet side but on a very good way as you get the milk chocolate, fudge, caramel, coffee and roasted almonds all in one sample. Nose is typical demerara with heavy tones of coffee, cocoa and leather. I like this one a lot despite it is only 40% abv.

J’ai adoré son nez, avec un coter porto, boisé et fleuri. Je n’ai pas apprécié son goût.
