    "Edit: as a blender rather the category fast and light summer CubaLibre Well, Florida and after the first reviews I had my doubts. I went in with an open mind and no great expectations. It's not that bad after all. It has a certain fruitiness and sweetness. Not really anything complex, but for an exotic drink in between, quite ok. I've had far worse in my glass recently."

    "Ist auch ganz ol, man muss es mögen. In der Nase überwiegt der alkoholische Geruch, ansonsten etwas Frucht und und brauner Zucker. Am Gaumen dann auch erstmal alkoholisch, dann wird er fruchtig und holzig, zum Abgang hin dann Karamell und Schokolade."

    "Brussels Rhum Festival 2024 In der Nase würzig,floral, frisch. Im Mund dann süßlich mild fruchtig zuerst eher flach entwickelt er sich auf der Zunge in Richtung Würze. Abgang kurz,fruchtig eher scharf."

    "Ein 18 Jahre alter Single Cask Rum aus Florida klingt erstmal sehr spannend. Im Glas und am Gaumen kann er leider nicht positiv überraschen. Das Gegenteim ist eher Fall. Für 18 Jahre Fassreife ist er sehr einfach. Von der Nase bis zum kurzen und alkoholisch scharfen Abgang, dominieren florale Noten, gepaart mit viel Kristallzucker und etwas süßem Gewürz. Vielen Dank für das Sample an Alex K.!"
