Old Man Spirits Rum Project One

Der Rum war frisch geöffnet und eingeschenkt enttäuschend. Wenn man ihn jedoch etwas Zeit im Glas gibt erlebt man sein wahres Wunder. Reinstes Kokos (mit einer leichten Vanille-Note) in der Nase und am Gaumen. Das Beste - der Geschmack bleibt eine gefühlte Ewigkeit erhalten - einzigartig! Ein wenig mehr Komplexität (Würze oder noch besser Frucht) und er wäre ganz oben bei meinen Favoriten!

Color: rather dark amber.
Smell: coconut +++, hint of caramel(?)
Taste: it is dominated by a nice complicated coconut taste, with a somewhat creamy texture related to the rather high sweetness of this rum. I could live with the sweetness, but I fear I would get disgusted by the very strong coconut taste on the long run. It remains an interesting rum that I would like to have a bottle of on my shelf. 6.8/10 seems a bit harsh to me - that’s a rum I would rate between 7 and 8, but this is just my two cents.

One word excellent descriptions this rum - coconut is everwhere - funny rum :)

A mouth full of different aromas (dried fruits, banana and coconut) it's a tasty blend but there is too much going on at once.

20ml uit een advent kalender. Zeer zoete rum zonder oomph.

You can´t judge a rum by it´s smell. That is especially the case with this one, which have a completely different taste from it´s smell.

Nose: Big hit of coconut with some hints of vanilla and apricot
Taste: Very mild taste with notes of apricot, raisins, green bananas and a small hint of coconut
Overall: From the smell I feared that I was about to experience a liqiud Bounty-bar, but that was far from the case. Pleasantly surprised and a drinkable rum for me.

Nose: Extremely cocos (bounty), some cinnamon, sweet vanilla, butter and hints of pepper and menthol (cold feeling)
Taste: Creme, full cocos again, caramel, white chocolate, nice!

Enjoyed a glass of Old Man Spirits Rum Project One in Key West FL. Very sweet to the nose, strong but sweet orange to the palate. No burn at the end, but you do get the sweetness shining through.

Nice sweet fruity rum, balaned on nose and palate with medium long finish

Lucka 10 i romkalendern 2017, betyget sammanfattar allt.

Great to taste other rums, and this one was actually okay, not the best but I quite like the taste.

Hvis man ikke er til kokos, så bør man holde sig væk fra denne ret milde rom.

Det er efter min mening ikke en sipperom.

This one is quite a lot influenced by coconut.
There is coconut in aroma with some vanilla.
The palate is also dominated by coconut, with hints oranges.
Its not bad, but the coconut can be little annoying with more volume of this rum. It coud be a good mixer.

Bare alt for meget kokus både i smag og duft. Alt for sød til min smag.

Kraftig duft af kokos, men også af vanille. I første omgang virkede den lidt sprittet, men efter at have trukket lidt, kom der en fin balance. Man kan smage mørk chokolade og abrikos, mens smagen af kokos ligger i eftersmagen, men ikke så det bliver for meget. Alt i alt en god rom, men den skal ikke koste over 500 kr. 10.

Ok rom, er ikke så vild med kokos smag, lille smule stærk.

Väldigt mycket kokos i både doft och smak. Kryddig eftersmak. Fyllig och söt. Inte illa.

Schönes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase, wie ein frisch angebissener Bounty Schokoriegel, extrem nach Kokos und doch lecker. Etwas Holz und Vanille zeigt sich dezent im Hintergrund.
Im Gaumen schleicht eine alkoholische Schärfe auf samtenen Pfoten über die Zunge und hiterlässt eine süsse Spur von Kokos, Vanille, Trockenfrüchte und Honig.
Im Abgang ist das Kokos omnipräsent, Vanille und Honig gesellen sich auch dazu.
Dies ist schon fast ein flavored Rum, wer diese Art von Rum liebt hat sicher Seine Freude daran.

Beautiful amber in the glass.
On the nose, like a freshly bitten Bounty candy bars, extremely of coconut and yet delicious. Some wood and vanilla are discreetly visible in the background.
On the palate, an alcoholic sharpness creeps on velvet paws on the tongue and leaves a sweet hint of coconut, vanilla, dried fruit and honey.
In the finish, the coconut is omnipresent, vanilla and honey also join.
This is almost a flavored rum, anyone who loves this type of rum will surely enjoy it.

Nice bottle! Nose: coconutmilk, vanilla and orange. Palate: coconutmilk with a big sweetness of vanilla fudge. Candy rum!

Süsse: 9/10
Würze: 7/10
Frucht: 9/10
Milde: 10/10
Extrem leckerer Rum

My first bottle of the "old man spirits". Well balanced, great taste. Not really impressive in the nose, but really nice, soft and sweet in the mouth. Coconut is not to dominating. Lets get also some other fine spirits from the "old man".

The first batch of this rum was balanced and sweet. Almost no spiciness but wholehearted rum aroma. I'd give it 9/10.
The second batch however has a rather artificial and very pushy coconut taste.
