Review by Timo Groeger
Bottle Market Bremen Oktober 2024. Hier mal ein wirklich schöner Plantation. Nase ist sehr fruchtig und weil es Jamaica ist, erkennt man auch gut den Ester. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls viel Ester und tropische Früchte. Lecker.
Review by Gregor
Great buket. Great taste. Unfortunately, a tacken too much sugar inside. But very round and coherent. Beautiful Jamaican tones
Review by Mathieu C.
Jamaican markers present but very discreet C Discreet aromas overall Very round and soft on the palate Pleasant A good introduction to Jamaican wines
Review by Christophe Fertel
Very pleasant in the mouth! Very fruity! Very good!
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
A very nice vintage rum from Jamaica that has all the traits of a Jamaican rum. A very good bottle where you at the end of the palate get that it was finished on cognac casks. Leave to rest for a while before giving it a go. Price to quality is very good.

Gentle Jamaican
Review by F.L.O.
No-brainer für den entspannten Einstieg in den Abend ! Typische Jamaika Ester Früchte an der Nase und im Mund. Die schwachen Prozente passen auch ganz gut für einen lockeren Einstieg. Aber er muss mindestens 20 Minuten atmen bevor es losgeht.
Review by Roman Staroń
Aniseed skin. Demanding but interesting.
