“Not a bad rum though I would have loved to try this one riped in a barrel. Fruity with nice esters.”

“Insgesamt spannendes Tasting. Einige waren für mich überraschenderweise äusserts lecker und schmackhaft. Die allseits beliebte Destilliere in einem anderen Licht. Das Grundprodukt in dieser Form zu versuchen hat seinen Reiz. Die Reife durch die Lagerung ist dann doch eine andere Hausnummer. Mein Podest: HLCF > HGML > C<>H Klares Low-Light: LROK”

“The Mark HLCF does not really make sense to me as a white rum. Tropically stored the rum wins, but unstored he is rather uninteresting-although there are also no off notes.”
