“Some migh consider this a light rum, but it's one of the best Fiji rums I have tasted. Fresh and fruity with some grass and flowers on there. I really like the smoky wood finish that last for a good while. On the first sip it is kind og heavy but it settles after that. Leave to rest for a good while and all the goodness comes at you. Leave the glass once empty and whif it after a couple of hours, pure joy I can tell you.”

“wow! this is my new reference Fiji Rum!🤤😍🇫🇯super fresh mint, some English Breakfast Tea, apricot, baked croissant with citrus jam.... the nose is awesome but the taste can do more:mint with black tea again, apricot, tangerine, grapefruit, honey, vanilla, allspice and clove and then in the finish again fresh mint but also some mocha, roasted almonds and pineapple with cocoa, all underpinned by glue and solvent. Really dirty and intense horny shit!”

“In der Nase eine tolle Aromatik, die schon weit vom Glas entfernt erkennbar wird. Tee, Heu, gekochte Früchte (Pflaumen und Kirschen) stechen hervor, später auch etwas Aprikose. Neben der fruchtigen kommt auch etwas schwerere Süsse dazu, die an Melasse und dezent an Gebäck erinnert. Im Mund melden sich zunächst dominante Teenoten, dazu frische Pflaume und Menthol. Auf der Zunge eine dezente Würzigkeit von Piment und Nelke. Der Abgang wird durch Pfeffer eingeleitet. Anschliessend kommt nochmals etwas Alkohol, Pflaumen sowie die sanfte Bitterkeit vom schwarzen Tee. Gesamt: Ein echtes „Brett“ mit Aroma ohne Ende. Irgendwie frisch und gleichzeitig schwer durch das feine Zusammenspiel der zahlreichen Aromen. Ein toller Vertreter der South Pacific Rums, der alle Spielarten vereint: Süsse und frische Früchte, sanfte Bitternoten vom Tee. Aussergewöhnlich.”
