Urlaub Kanada & Jamaika September 2025. Dieser Kingston 62 aus dem Hotel fehlte auch noch :) Finde ihn etwas besser als die Community, vielleicht wegen der geilen View hier :) Leichte, aber angenehme Süße bestehend aus Karamell und Schokolade, aber auch etwas Holz und Gewürze haben wir hier.
Auto-translatedWell, it's ok, but nothing much more than that 🤷♂️
A good mixer. A bit too rough neat for my taste.
Mostly just caramel and a little funk. Very light hogo funk for a Jamaican, though it sits there a bit in the aftertaste. Light golden pour. Had a glass at this at a supposed tiki bar with very few rums in St. Croix.
