This rum had just a nice flavor with the nice woody notes with some of the raisin and carmelly tones. It was great neat an din a cocktail, and the fact that some of the profits go to anti-racist organizations is a plus.

A nice and mellow rum pleasant on the palate. Not too sweet. I would not be ashamed to serve it to anyone with no experience with rum that would not like to get a sugar shock. Would buy again.

Oh wow! The nose is pretty bland, not a lot to smell there. But the body is nice and full with so many different tastes coming in and out! It's nice and rough, I could taste raisins, oak, some leathery notes. You can feel the age in the finish. If the taste was stronger and the nose was more present and pleasant it could be a ten!

A deep leather color with nice legs. Oak on the nose with subtle hints of vanilla, simple but very nice. Clean palate, simple but elegant. Decent mouth feel, dry finish with some pepper on the back.

Overall a very nice mid range rum. Perfectly suited neat or in high end cocktails, far too nice for simple mixers. 7/10

barva zlatá
vune ovocná s karamelem
chut počáteční sladkost vystřídá pálení s nevýraznou chutí, čekal bych výraznější FSQ
zaver slabší s karamelem a lehkým ovocem
