Jamaika Rum, Destillerie unbekannt, sechs Jahre lang in einem Ex-Bourbon Fass gereift und für acht Monate in einem ehemaligen St. Émilion Hogshead-Weinfass veredelt.
Schönes leuchtendes helles Bernstein mit Kupferreflektionen im Glas.
In der Nase sanft und elegant, schon fast ein wenig zu anständig für einen Jamaika Rum. Eine riesige Palette an Düften tut sich auf, die sich fortwährend verändert. Mal sind es dunkle Beeren und Trauben mit Karamellsauce mal sind es mit Chili und dunkler Schokolade eingeriebene Eichenbretter oder frische Blumen und Kräuter die im Harz an der Sonne liegen.
Am Gaumen elegant und mild. Unglaublich da zieht fast unbemerkt eine Karawane voller Aromen an den Geschmacksknospen vorbei. Konzentration ist gefragt um alle diese verschiedenen Aromen zu entdecken. Tropische, getrocknete, kandierte, eingelegte und mediterrane Früchte wie Ananas, Mango, Bananen, Rosinen, Kirschen, Orangen, Zitronen, Feigen und einige mehr. Toffee, Karamell, Kaffee, Kakao, Leder, Tabak bilden eine herben Kontrapunkt. Harze, Holz, Tannine, Kräuter bringen die Würze und Spannung mit.
Im Abgang klingen die Aromen langsam aus, das Karamell bleibt etwas länger.
Ein gefälliger Jamaika Rum der ohne "Funk" auskommt, etwas mehr Bürgermeister im Anzug als Fischer bei rauer See. Ein Rum für Geniesser und Weinliebhaber.
Flasche 136/310

Jamaican rum, distillery unknown, aged for six years in an ex-bourbon barrel and finished for eight months in a former St. Émilion Hogshead wine barrel.
Beautiful bright light amber with copper reflections in the glass.
Smooth and elegant on the nose, almost a little too decent for a Jamaican rum. A huge palette of scents opens up, changing continually. Sometimes it is dark berries and grapes with caramel sauce sometimes it is oak boards rubbed with chili and dark chocolate or fresh flowers and herbs that lie in the resin in the sun.
On the palate elegant and mild. Incredibly, a caravan of flavors passes the taste buds almost unnoticed. Concentration is required to discover all these different flavors. Tropical, dried, candied, pickled and Mediterranean fruits like pineapple, mango, bananas, raisins, cherries, oranges, lemons, figs and some more. Toffee, caramel, coffee, cocoa, leather, tobacco provide a tart counterpoint. Resins, wood, tannins, herbs bring the spice and tension.
On the finish, the flavors fade slowly, the caramel lingers a bit longer.
A pleasing Jamaican rum that gets along without "funk", a little more mayor in a suit than fisherman at rough sea. A rum for connoisseurs and wine lovers.

Ultimatum, from The Little Distillers is the Rum part of Dutch Company Van Wees who are famous for their Independent Single Malt bottlings. Here you get the best quality at an incredibly fair price. No fake Rum, because no sugar added, no colour and unchill filtered.
Nose comes with ripe fruits and dark red wine. I never tried St. Emilio Red Wine but it seems to be a perfect idea to use it as a finish for this rum.
While Jamaica Rum usually comes rather strong and powerful, this rum was quite mild and sweetish by its finish.
On the tongue and palate, the soft character asserts itself wonderfully.
The wine asserts itself positively, with notes of raisins and dried fruit.
Watch out for a bottle, it is limited to 310 bottles only.
