Batch 001.

This is definitely a cognac aged rum, with a little whisky aging as well. I like it, but I think the cognac/whisky have a little too much influence. I generally prefer straight rum.

Smells and tastes of cognac, whisky, and a touch of vanilla and honey. Nice at 44%abv, but not enough rum flavor for me to rate it higher.

I have held out on trying this stuff for years. Anyhow, I missed out, very good rum, well balanced and has a nice start to finish. Very surprised and now a fan.

I’m sure it’s a really good rum, but it’s far too whiskey-esque for me. I prefer a sweeter, smoother rum than this one

look/appearance is much lighter than most rims, very light, appears like scotch. Taste/finish is almost exactly like a highland scotch, malty, slightly Smokey without being peaty. Slight alcohol burn on the end. Honestly, would think this is a Scotch if tastes blind. I can’t rate this objectively as a rum, but 88+.

Tried batch 2, expected very dry stuff, but is was more to my taste with the molasses flavor playing bigger part.

Pleasant amber rum, soft with aromas of wood, citrus, cognac and vanilla. The taste is sober, but good, nothing extraordinary.

Agradable Ron de color ámbar, suave con aromas de madera, cítricos, coñac y vainilla. El sabor es sobrio, pero bueno, nada extraordinario.

Strong nose, a deep oakey taste, only slightly sweet (no added sugar), and a dry aftertaste. Nice Stuff

Rhum proveniente dalle Mauritius con un buon grado alcolico. Colore a brat o con note di frutta tropicale e vaniglia

I am referring to batch no 4: nice bottle, amber colour; this is a complex and flavorful rum; for the aging process bourbon and whisky barrels have been used with a dominant proportion of whisky barrels for batch no 4. This can be easily recognized when tasting this rum. Tropical fruits and spice dominate the taste together with that hint of whisky-dryness. Very nice, fruity and long lasting aftertaste. From my view a very special rum. According to producer information no artificial coloring is used and the rum is not chill filtered which is very much appreciated.

Very nice, smooth and tasty rum. Similar to cognac taste, I definitely recommend this rum.

This is a lovely rum full of fruity and slightly spicy flavour, very nice to sip on its own or with a mixer
