Very industrial first sip, harsh. But milds out a bit after. Very mix of flavors. From wood, vanilla, orange. Interesting.

søtlig smak med en varm og god ettersmak, en Rom som kan anbefales.

Surinam je pro mě velká neznámá. Rum má velmi příjemnou plnou vůni, to by se mohlo prodávat jako pánská vůně. Chuťově bych řekl, že se jedná o jemnou verzi Kubánského rumu.

Very good as neat. Not even worth using ice with this one. Medium dark color, good oakey taste, not too sweet, but not dry either.

I had the 15 year aged and the 8 years aged I still have more then half a bottle. That says enough.... unfortunately the 15 years aged is hard to get outside Suriname.

There is slight caramel and fruits on nose; flavour is very interesting, from leather, tobacco, minerals, medium sugar

Lovely aroma and really tasty. It has a lovely mild burn. Surprisingly good this.

Rum from Suriname is new to me. Before this I knew the country as the one, where all the good Dutch football players came from, but this is about to change with this rum from Borgoe.

Nose: Wood, dates and cherrys
Taste: Dates, molasses and some soft spices that lingers in the long aftertaste
Overall: This was really not bad. It could have done with a higher proof to bring the flavours more into the glass, but this is simply put a good rum.

Sattes kupferfarbenes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase sehr dezent, getoastetes Holz mit saurem Karamell, nasses Moos mit Kakao bepudert, frisch geschnittene unreife Früchte, Heu, Liebstöckel und Nelken runden das ganze ab.
Im Gaumen weich und schon fast zu sanft, leckere Kakao Noten und Holz Töne streichen über die Zunge, saure Kirschen, Karamell, Nelken, Kardamom...…
Im Abgang nicht so lang aber lecker, Honig, Schokolade, Holz....
Ein ganz spezieller Rum der wie der schräge Zwillingsbruder eines Demerara Rum wirkt. Durchaus und jedem Entdecker zu empfehlen. 7+

Rich copper-coloured amber in the glass.
In the nose very discreet, toasted wood with sour caramel, wet moss powdered with cocoa, freshly cut unripe fruits, hay, lovage and cloves complete the whole.
In the palate soft and almost too soft, tasty cocoa notes and wood tones spread over the tongue, sour cherries, caramel, cloves, cardamom.......
In the finish not so long but tasty, honey, chocolate, wood.....
A very special rum that appears like the weird twin brother of a Demerara rum. Absolutely and every discoverer to recommend. 7+
