How does MHOBA Strand 151 2019 taste?

Aggregated from 13 community reviews.

Brutal, funky cane-juice powerhouse Highly praised overproof Mhoba: brutally intense fresh cane, overripe fruit and caramel candy with wild funk. Long, dry finish and impressive value for high-ABV enthusiasts.

Perfect for

Seasoned enthusiasts who enjoy high-ester, grassy cane-juice rums at serious overproof strength and want a raw, funky experience for sipping with water or powerfully flavored cocktails.

Less suitable for

Those sensitive to alcohol heat, beginners, or drinkers who dislike solventy, fermented-fruit funk and very dry, intense overproof profiles.

Lecker lecker und das für den Preis. Wahnsinn. Etwas weniger komplex und intensiv als der Plastik aber dennoch sehr gut.

Erster Eindruck an der Nase: echt brachial! Vergorene Früchte wie bei HD, dazu chemische Noten, Vanille, Gewürznelken und der Apfelessig, den ich schon bei anderen MHOBAs ausgemacht habe. Der ABV ist präsent aber nicht stechend! Am Gaumen brennt es dafür dann schon ordentlich. Mit einem Tropfen Wasser wird es deutlich angenehmer, es kommt dann sowohl an der Nase als auch am Gaumen noch eine angenehme Karamellbonbon -Note hinzu.

Krass intensiv nach Karamellbonbon und den typischen überreifen mhoba Aromen nach Speck, Banane und überreifem Obst und etwas salziger Olive. Alkohol ist sehr gut eingebunden!

Recommendation: do not immediately hold the nose in glass after removing the lid.😆 Lies somehow between Jamaica and Savanna, as far as the nose is concerned. On the palate very intense, after overripe,almost fermented fruit, coupled with varnish and spicy barrel. The alcohol is clearly noticeable, but no wonder with the amount 😀😈
