Plantation 2011 Single Cask Barbados Maury 10-Year

Výrazná vůně po koření, velmi příjemném sladkém dřevě a fortifikovaném víně (ořechy, koncentrovaná vůně sušeného ovoce). V chutí převládá obrovský vliv vína, ale je to příjemné, zase ořechy, káva, sušené ovoce. Mezí rumy sherry bomba, i když zrálo po likérovém víně Maury.

Aroma is heavier with wood.
Taste is more on dry side, full of wood, spice complex and heavy. Aftertaste is long with a bit bitter ending (coming from the wine). Very nice experience - if you can, you should try it.

Thanks to the tasting set, I had the opportunity to try several single casks from Plantation, and the first to hit was Barbados 2011 Maury.

Aroma: I have to say the smell of this rum was great, actually one of the best. I noticed very intense smell of orange, raisins in combination with smokiness (and that is what I love).

Taste: I think it reminded me of Plantation Grande Reserve, however this is on a higher level. I noticed dry fruit and some spices and als some kind of wood taste which I really liked.

Overall: very good start of the tasting set, but I have to say I would not pay 70€ for this bottle. Nevertheless, I recommend trying and comparing it with other Single casks by Plantation or with other Barbados rums.
