“On the nose I found him still quite versatile in terms of fruit, smoke, roasted aromas and something artificially sweet!On the palate he then loses noticeably. Too one-dimensional it tastes predominantly of smoke, burnt espresso and slightly bitter roasted flavors! Everything else falls more or less by the wayside! Too bad!In the finish, these flavors continue!”

“in a blind tasting, I would have guessed a high ester HD. Fermented fruit, milk cream and toasty notes dominate the nose. On the palate quite violently burned out barrel, for me almost a bit too much of a good thing. There is little room for anything else even in the finish.”

“A rum from the Fiji Islands. The nose is exuberant like a Jamaican rum, with its typical notes of very ripe fruits, solvents and esters. Floral and olive notes bring some freshness, while one can also feel a smoky frame that gives strength to the rum. On the palate, tropical fruits and smoky notes intermingle, offering a rum that is quite biting at first, but easily tamed afterwards. On the finish, the rum remains on smoky and tropical fruit flavors, but has less impact than the olfaction and tasting. A pleasant rum that allows to discover another land of rum unknown to the general public.”
