Had just a sample of this Pot Still rum, a blend of rums that’s consisting of unaged rum as well as rum aged for up to 3 years.
The aroma is fresh and I recognize fruity flavours.
In mouth, palate and during the quite long finish I detect tropical fruits, ginger and oak.
Overall it’s a great high esters, funky and well balanced rum with heavy flavors.
Picture: My emptied sample poured in a glass.

Rigtig meget smag, og det er en god smag. Med 54 ,5% er der også masser af power i denne rom.

Tasted at Tiki Huna on 9-1-23. Pours a beautiful garnet brown color. Aromatic with raisins, plums, and dates all wrapped up in a blanket of hogo. This is hot. Rich overripe fruit flavors that give way to a profound nuttiness- hazelnut and walnut. Palate is thick but not buttery. With a single ice cube, this opens up and releases a smokiness . Great rum!

Zapach: rodzynki, melasa, zioła i stara skarpeta :) Naprawdę zaskakujący rum nie dla wszystkich. Smak jest zaskakujacy, intensywny oraz 100% funky - ja lubie ale wiecej jak dwa drinki nie jestem w stanie wypić. Absolutnie już jego niewielka ilość dodana do Coli dominuje całość.

Jamaican rum made primarily for mixing in cocktails. I tested it alone. It is a blend of low ester rums that has been aged for 3 years in oak barrels into which is then blended an unaged rum with a higher ester content. The esters create a technical-fruity proportion in the flavour typical of Jamaican rums. The resulting blend is bottled at 54.5% ABV.

Bottle: High, liquor type
Colour: Dark mahogany. Due to the age of the rum, I believe it has been coloured with caramel.

Aroma: Strong fruity-ester. There is a strong fruity fermentation aroma, but it is a very pleasant. Must try. In the aroma you can detect caramel, banana, pineapple, apricot ferment, flowers.
Mouth: Very dry, a little bit bitter and, due to the alcohol content, very burning on the palate and on the tongue. I recognised unripe fruit (bananas, pineapple, grapes) in the taste. The certain bitterness I felt at the beginning is slowly fading.
Finish: Long.

Summary: There is a strength that makes itself known. Although it's mainly intended for cocktails (Cuba libre, Tiki), it's quite drinkable on its own.
Overall rating: 8.5/10

I like this dark and full of sweet taste rum for creating Dark and Stormy's. Much better drinks then other brands

This cask strength Rum comes with 54.5% Vol.
Colour is deep dark mahogany. They say it has not been coloured.
When I opened it for the first time I did not find the smell very pleasant. Glue, fermented paint and ethanol came to mind. After a while in the glass it got better but not really fine.
Now, after a few month the smell has changed very much to the positive, wich is probably due to the fact that the bottle has become emptier and thus contains more air.
Now the nose captivates with overripe plums and garden lovage aka Maggi.
Very intensive and heavy but not bad at all.
In the mouth you have a very fruity sweetness, also here overripe plums and of course nectarines. Some say that there is Vanilla but I haven't noticed.
The finish is long with some wood notes and dried fruits.
With 3 years this is a real youngster but a good example of how good the quality of a Rum can be when the circumstances are right as you would expect at Worthy Park.

Farven er mørk
Duften af fad
Smagen er ok og de 54% kan godt fornemmes.

Not bad at all for that young rum. Raisin flavour does not bother. Very rich and dark without sweetness. And of course, pleasantly powerful.

This rum really stands out. Pretty smooth, some nice molasses notes. Goes great in a rum old fashioned.
