This rum tastes like it is much older,really surprise for 5yo solera!

Let's have another rum from Mauritius today : Gold of Mauritius 5 year solera from the Litchquor Distillery. I couldn't find out for sure if this is a rum made from molasse or fresh pressed sugar cane, like it's usual in Mauritius. 40 % should be inside.
Nose : when you open the bottle, someone sings you the banana song. This is really the first time for me that a rum pumps such intensive ripe banana notes in my nose. Additional with a mixture from vanilla and light nail polish remover. Interesting and not bad. And very special
Palate : the banana notes receiving your mouth now. Sweet vanilla. Some undefined spices. Interesting different.
Finish : short to middle. Only a little sweetness, more spices and some hints of coffee.
Conclusion : this rum is an interesting alternative to other rums. Not really great, but good drinkable. If you like banana :-). And on top in great looking bottle.
But .... I found out, that there is about 30 gr sugar per liter in this rum and just 32 % alcohol. What a pity. With less sugar I would give him a 7 to 8. One point less for the added sugar and the wrong declaration. So a good 6 from me.

A strong and yet smooth rum. Not my favorite but would definitely drink it again.

Ce rhum sent super bon, mais une fois dans la bouche..... Je sais pas, il est peut être dans mes goût.

Also has a lot of flavour, but has more burn than the Gold of Mauritius Dark.

Exciting smokiness, more sophisticated than "5-year" label tells. But it has some strange aftertaste which is not for everyone's taste - and personally it made me wanna switch to another rum asap.

Not bad for a 5 but has a dryness that I'm really not fan of. Almost reminded me of a smoother Bundy.

Whaum der havde jeg nære mistet min næsehår. Den er meget sprittet i duften.
Krydderet i smagen og en lang sød eftersmag. Ikke nogen speciel stor rom oplevelse.
