Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
The first thing that comes to mind with this rum is that it's too light. It has been diluted far too much and I would have loved a higher ABV. It's still fresh and has the Damoiseau flavours; fruity vanilla and light wood. There is also a nice hint of caramel and chocolate. Price to quality is can be discussed :-)
Review by Benoit Mahe
Un blend mélasse-pur jus très agréable.
Review by cigares
Bon rhum, mais il me laisse sur ma faim. Pas assez de profondeur, pas assez de fruité. Équilibré mais manque un peu de mordant.
Review by Filip Šikula
Příjemná ale za mě velmi nekonrétní vůně. Možná takový vanilkový pudin s kompotem. Chuť je příjemná, náznaky zemitosti i ovoce, ale pocitově je to příliž naředěné a snesl bych výrazně vyšší abv. Téměř žádný závěr.
