Der wahre Geschmack von Rum findest Du in dieser Flasche !
Schön bernsteinfarbig im Glas.
In der Nase zarte Düfte von reifen Früchten, Vanille und Holznuancen.
Im Gaumen recht kräftig mit 43% Vol. aber dennoch nicht scharf sondern weich und süffig.
Früchte, Vanille, dunkle Schokolade....... welch ein Erlebnis ! Nicht süss aber so lecker !
Diese Aromen bleiben lang im Abgang erhalten.
Ein nahezu perfekter Rum !

You can find the true taste of rum in this bottle!
Beautifully amber colored in the glass.
In the nose delicate scents of ripe fruit, vanilla and wood nuances.
In the palate quite strong with 43% vol. But not sharp, but soft and tasty.
Fruits, vanilla, dark chocolate ....... what an experience! Not sweet but so delicious!
These aromas are preserved long in the finish.
A nearly perfect rum!

Possibly the finest rum I've had at this price point. Gloriously smooth, brilliant on the nose, and excellent on the throat. Cant believe this is 7.8 rated, its far far beyond that

Very smooth. Sweet just enough to make you think it could be sweeter while at the same time appreciate that's not too sweet

A special rum at a very good price. Typical mount gay flavours but more pronounced

Not much to say, than it is a worthy rum with good analogies, to buy. The least you can rate it is 7 but really worth your time and money.

Second tasting, slightly disappointing. Initial taste is very smooth but on the weak side. If you swallow you get a kick with a slight alcohol burn. Aftertaste is the best thing about this one for me, very smooth and very long lasting.

I know hardly anything about rum I'm just giving it a rating so it shows up in my 'cabinet'. That said, it was very easy to drink. Seemed somehow less flavourful than the Diplomatico RE I had, but also smoother. After drinking this the Diplomatico seemed like it had much more of a burn.
