Tres Hombres 2017 Edition 17 La Palma Duro 7-Year

Never tasted a more nutty run before. The taste more on the whiskey side but still smooth nutty and tary. Good.

Duft af kanel, frugt og træ. Blød smag med en anelse frugt og fad. Lang finish med lidt hint af krydderi til sidst. Ikke den større oplevelse men heller ikke den værste. 22. December 2018.

Tres Hombres is rather unique in the way that they store the rum in casks, that is on board a ship that sails across the Atlantic Ocean. I was rather curious if this would do something good to the rum, or if it would just be a marketing ploy.

Nose: Overripe fruit, light rubber and muscovado brown sugar
Taste: Light taste of syrup, banana, mango and a small hint of oak.
Overall: The phrase "Flawed with a glimmer of hope" fits perfectly for this rum, because it feels like this could be good, but it just haven´t got the time to be "finished". A few more years and maybe a higher proof and this would be a much better rum.

Söt i doften, kola och choklad i smaken. Mild men lite kryddig i slutet. Kort eftersmak.

It has a strange cigarette smoke aroma, followed by old attic flavor. Surprisingly minimal burn at the end. Strange experience.

Smells like an old leather couch and a hint of poor quality wood. Tastes a bit of pear but reminds me of the inexpensive and under aged barcelo rums. Too light but the flavour is adequately pleasant. Trying to think of something special about this rum but it eludes my senses.

Tasting
Grass, light oak

This is a very boring rhum wow expected so much more

Vanilla and fruity (sweet pear) in aroma, burnt molases, spices and bitterness in the body, gentle burning in tail for agricole

Easy drinking, but overly sweet and lacking in character.
