Review by Mc Pirate
Nez très puissant type jamaïcain et un second nez sur la canne à sucre. Bouche extrêmement puissante qui, une fois de pic de douleur passé, laisse place à une explosion de pâtisserie, pâte brisée et amande. Franchement une révélation !
Review by zabo
Edit: So now, how could it be otherwise, I've tried it as a mixer for a CubaLibre. It's really something different in the glass. I think it can really do something here. Simply delicious. But the points remain the same despite everything, no correction really necessary for me. Mhoba Night Was the last of the 6 different Mhoba. But the tastiest for me today.

Review by Timo Groeger
Mhoba High Ester, ich liebe diese Esterbomben. Natürlich hat man den Ester direkt in der Nase und die tropischen Früchten kommen natürlich auch dazu. Wie gesagt, ist sowas mit Cola echt ein super Sommergetränk. Am Gaumen kann mann dann zusätzlich noch Zuckerrohr schmecken.
Review by Gregor
Very pleasant nose: pear and coconut, some white grapes even a hint of pineapple nuts, very light glue Palate, coconut, Brazil nut & cashew, pear and vanilla (without wood of course), slightly gluey, banana on the finish, slightly creamy, alcohol well integrated - I especially like the finish!
Review by w00tAN
Very nice white overproof rum with an exciting profile. Strong, clear but by no means rough. I have it on my list from now on.
Review by Gregor
For those who want to try white overproofs for a long time highly recommended. I was really flabbergasted by the and would like uf definitely now get to know the stored products from the company
Review by Fuwi
Wow, so eine komplexe Komposition von Würze und Ester habe ich nicht von einem so jungen, weißen Rum erwartet! Hab 2 mal probieren müssen, macht wirklich Spaß und ist sehr lecker! Alkohol ist auch überraschend gut eingebunden. Top!
Review by Thunderbird
A very good white Mhoba, which I primarily use for mixing. The herbal aromas are very evident here and of course the esters, which are not to be sneezed at.
Review by Djehey
Lots of intensity, a lovely sweetness and, in the middle, an astonishing note of mushroom and undergrowth (truffle). Unfortunately, it's too much for me too... Would a lesser degree make it more accessible?
