Very sour, should've read the review. It has a really strong Tequila punch, with the barrel notes of the rum and the simple syrup trying to do a lot of heavy lifting with the sweetness, and the egg white ensuring it is not verging on metallic. Not a favourite.
Bright citrus is warmed as the rum comes in.
