Schönes sattes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase weich und tief. Frisch gebackene Schokoladenbrötchen im Vanillezucker gewendet und mit einem Hauch Kardamom und Zimt verfeinert. Dazu eine Holzschüssel voll mit leckerem Kompott in aus Birnen, Zwetschgen, rote Beeren, etwas Rhabarber und einem Krümel Harz. Eine leichte Karamellsauce rundet es vorzüglich ab.
Am Gaumen satt und kräftig. Die Brötchen sind mit zartem Karamell gefüllt und erzeugen ein wohliges Mundgefühl. Die zermanschten Früchte gleiten langsam über die eh schon verwöhnte Zunge und umschmeicheln die Geschmacksknospen. Die gerösteten Gewürze, Harze, Tannine, Kakaobohnen und Holznoten tauchen geisterhaft immer wieder dazwischen auf.
Im Abgang lang und trocken. Gewürze und Holz verlassen das Schauspiel zuerst, Früchte folgen später, das Karamell bleibt bis zum Schluss und zurück bleibt etwas Harz auf der Zunge.
Ein toller Rum, schön rund und doch Charakter. Für Einsteiger, Fortgeschrittene und Geniesser. 8+
Beautiful rich amber in the glass.
In the nose soft and deep. Freshly baked chocolate rolls tossed in vanilla sugar and finished with a touch of cardamom and cinnamon. Accompanied by a wooden bowl full of delicious compote in from pears, plums, red berries, some rhubarb and a crumb of resin. A light caramel sauce rounds it out exquisitely.
The palate is rich and robust. The rolls are filled with delicate caramel and create a comforting mouthfeel. The crushed fruit slowly glides over the already indulged tongue and caresses the taste buds. The toasted spices, resins, tannins, cocoa beans and wood notes keep ghostly popping up in between.
The finish is long and dry. Spices and wood leave the show first, fruits follow later, the caramel stays until the end and left behind is some resin on the tongue.
A great rum, nice and round yet character. For beginners, advanced and connoisseurs. 8+

Nose fruity tropicalness, taste is peppery molasses, finish is overly sweet

This is a good sipping rum, starts a bit "medicinal" with an astringent taste but it mellows as it goes down. I've taken a few months to go through this bottle and each time I'm expecting it to be sweeter, but I'm accepting of the different taste that this rum presents. Worthy of a 7 but can't see giving it more.

It's tasty, relatively smooth, nice amber colour, but simply not deep enough and rich enough for me.

Tasted at Mitch e Amaro during Lei Away in North KC September 1 2023
Appearance: amber
Aroma: butter.
Flavor: I don't understand this rum. Perhaps it's because the flavor and aroma don't seem to match. For flavor I'm getting funk, gunpowder, a whiff of the sordid history of colonization and. It much hope.
I do think people who enjoy this type of flavor profile will be quite satisfied.

A bit astringent off the hop. Turning into an oaken liquorice with vegetative overtones that I'm not used to from a Demerara. Smells of white grapes and acetone. Goes down but would prefer a deeper molasses theme as opposed to something so feisty.

Un bon rhum Plantation comme d'habitude. La robe est claire doré. Un nez gourmand et chaud avec une pointe d'amertume et caco maigre. En bouchez l'attaque est vive intense tres florale un boisé léger. La finale est longue, chaude épicée et réglisse

Tasted at the Lei Low rum tasting #1 on 9-1-23. Deep gold color. Mild molasses aroma. Flavor is the best part. Medicinal bitterness smooths into a burned brown sugar delight. Sulfurous. Classic lidocaine finish that numbs in a pleasant way. Good stuff.
