English Harbour 10-Year

Park my boat in this Harbour, this was a great for my tongue.

Not strong aroma and body, but has his own unique character. Longer smooth aftertaste. Good sample for RUM explorers :-)

I tried this only as the 1981 25 year old had only a dribble left in the bottle at the famous Rum Bar in the beautiful Whitsunday Isles in North Queensland recently.. what a nice experience the 10 year old was.
Sweet and strong with toffee , burnt brown sugar , with a lovely spiceyness thats smoothes the sweetness out. Didn't think I would have so much appreciation for a youngish rum. You can even taste molasses from the barrel in there. Cant wait to try the 1981 one day if I can find one !

Amazing stuff. I love subtle taste of this bottle and strong favlour.

dry with a lot of spicy, some coconut, cinnamon and tropical fruit

40% ABV. Formerly XO. 10-12yo. A little dryer than 5. Not as fruity, nor as smooth (more sugar added to the 5?). Earthy. Some bite despite the low strength.

A perfectly enjoyable sipper, but rather tame and boring.

8-

Leathery paper box in the glass then follow with marmalade and toast, cereal with mixed dried fruits (raisins, banana) and dried coconut.

Spicy, dry ashy wood. Crusty apple pie with pecan and coco powder. Sweet mango flambé with brandy and cinnamon.

Charred dry ashy wood finishing with sweet spices.

Ordentlicher Rum für den Abend. Gutes Preis/Leistungsverhältnis. Nicht zu süß. Sehr lecker

Brought a bottle back from Antigua and waited a bit to try it. Wasn’t sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised.

Initially I found the aroma a little weak. The usual demarra, caramel and vanilla essences but just that little bit was lacking. I was however impressed by the taste and texture. Really smooth, almost syrupy in the mouth with a light burn in the nose and warmth on the way down. Surprisingly not that sweet but still has the main vanilla and molasses coming through. However, the taste didn’t linger too long, which was a bit disappointing.

All in all an ok rum that I wouldn’t be unhappy to be given but will not buy again as there are others in the same price range that are better.

slightly smooth, mild flavor of molasses and bitter oak
