Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This is an old tasting from June 26 2009, where we had a nice tasting at this Pub, which is no more. They were force to shut down in 2013 and I have spent a lot of time there with my friends. Notes on this rum are that the colour is dark and the nose is fresh yet light and that the low ABV leaves a thin palate.
