Rum is dry with cherry like finish and mild sweetness.
Longlasting finish with bitter nutty tones.
Fine rum but it does not make big impression enough to be remembered and recommanded
6,5

Didnt know what to expect on tbis one, picked it up on a whim.

Overall it is pretty light in nose and body, only reason I gave it a 7 and not an 8. That being said, i like the profile of it. Starts off sweet, definitely molases amd sugar on the front end. But the sweetness melts away fast into some bananna and a hint of oak, which really makes this a good one to enjoy neat IMO. Nothing stands out, nothing is overpowering, no bitter finish. Will likely be a regular for me.

Esperaba más, es muy equilibrado, tiene fuerza pero se bebe fácil, tiene dulzor pero no empalaga, me gusta pero no es mi preferido.

Pleasant enough with dried leafy, raisiny flavors with a hint of caramel.
A mild spice on the tongue and a sight burn in the nose it makes a fair sipper.

An old batch of this series. Double-distilled and matured in American oak before a second maturation period in sherry casks.

N- Caramel and stewed fruits, herbal tea with layer of earthiness to keep it authentic. Soft breezy oak, and floral, again touch of feint from this multiple distilled spirits. White raisin, sour plum and dried fruit intertwined. (84/18)

P- Thin body, sweet kiwi, young banana and oak smokes, Easy on palate with touch of dusty oak, which is not a bad thing in this case. (83/18)

F- Medium, plums, clean oak with semi dry finish, touch of bitter sweet herbs. (85/19)

B/B- 84/18, having same issue to term with the low strength that restricted any profound flavours of the rum to come thru.

Weighted Rate- 73pt

Nice sipper over ice. A slight burn without ice but totally smooth with ice no need to ruin it with a mixer. It's a nice dominican blend aged for 8 years in ex bourbon in brick house and a second aging in ex-sherry casks for 6 years in brick houses. Nice fruity and slightly sweetened, can taste the flavours from both barrels coming through a slight smoky smoothness from the bourbon and a fruity raisin caramel finish. Wonderful

Wonderfully oaky flavor. A bit of a bite straight, but still pleasant. Very fine mixed, but no need to waste it in that fashion.

Only a bit sharp at the beginning, but smooths out. Notes of vanilla and cinnamon.

Nič extra a zapamatateľné, ale chuť neurazí. Vôňa klasická. Chuť hlavne karamel a dub, trochu korenie
