"Rather weak, hardly any flavors present, especially in the mouth and aftertaste. The base spirit was probably already not good, but the rum was watered down too much, but still has a rather alcoholic sharpness."

"Unfortunately, too stretched. The taste is good. Nothing sensational but good. But unfortunately very short-winded. The rum tastes very watered down"

"The nose is far better than the taste. Some sugar, more bitterness, alcohol an water. Only an average rum."

"Nase: zu Beginn ein wenig jamaikanischer Funk aber trotzdem rund, nicht schlecht! Mund: oh oh, viel zu lasch! Von den Früchten bleibt fast nichts erst zum Abgang hin blitzten sie nochmal kurz auf. Abgang: dominiert von Fass und Holz. Bis auf die Nase leider nicht so dolle. Die Verdünnung ist schon deutlich zu spüren."
