Review by Michal Jurka
More of a liquer or something than a rum. This is one of those unicors - totally different, totally unique (for good or bad). Very earthy and fresh at the same time, herbal, minty, floral. I quite enjoyed it, maybe because I didn't expect rum.

No es de mis preferidos
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Dry, unsweetened spiced rum with a charity character for gorillas. But somehow it only smells fresh like eucalyptus 🤣 I don't really understand why it has to cost €80... I can also make a eucalyptus infusion myself😅

Review by Filip Heimerle
It's a very confusing piece which for me is closer to gin. I smell a lot of juniper and herbs. In taste a hint of cream otherwise sharper and sharper
