15 Mhoba American Oak Aged Ratings

Mhoba rum, with its Jamaican "funky" spirit, is made from pure fresh Nkomazi cane juice grown at the Mhoba Sugar Estate in South Africa. The distillates come from unique stills built by Robert Greaves, the founder of the brand. The rum is aged for the first time in large glass bottles with pieces of American white oak cut and charcoal burned at the distillery. The rum is then transferred from these "glass barrels" to former South African whisky casks for a second ageing process that will reveal all its gourmet and intense woodiness

Funky & woody, with sweet fruit-honey notes; divisive yet innovative.

Flower, honey, molases, riped banana in aroma; honey, spices and pepper, decent funky in the body; pleasant heating tail.

Nejslabší Mhoba, ale i tak to je velmi vydařený rum. Umírněnější, ale pořád trochu funky styl. Rum na celý večer. Domů si ho nepořídím, ale když je možnost tak si ho vždy dám rád.

By far not the same flavor as great Mboha Strand French Cask and way less funky than blue Mhoba Strand or white High Ester. At 43% boringly :) weak alcohol, too.
The smell is nicely sweet (vanilla, fruits, wood), the taste is quite well balanced - wooden, little bittery, little sweet. There is nothing wrong with the tones and rummakers here found some good balance. Probably both fruity and peppery (smoke, wood) tones are being present, along with obligatory overriped fruits. The taste is still quite unique but there are likely quite similar rums born somewhere else in the world. Waste of time to say I disliked it at first sip :)
Overall not so special and little bit boring when compared to other 60%+ Mhobas. Probably a decent "Mboha Gateway Rum".
Given the highly individual character of each Mhoba rum you have only chance and that is to taste it on your own and make your own judgement (preferably in the end of the bottle, not just a funny tester).
As I find pretty usual for all Mhobas, I started to accept this rum around the end of the bottle... :)

Rum je vyráběn hodně speciálně. Nezraje v sudu, ale se sudem. Bílý rum je uložen do velkých skleněných demižonů s chipsy z amer. bílého dubu, které si Mhoba sama nařezala a vypálila. Jakmile je ukončeno zrání v těchto skleněných demižonech (staření probíhá 12 měsíců), je rum ještě přemístěn k druhému zrání do sudů, které předtím obsahovaly jihoafrickou whisky. Druhé zrání probíhá 3 - 6 měsíců.

Aroma: Sladké - spousta květin, med, exotické dřevo
Chuť: Med a koření
Dozvuk: Karamel, lehce opálené dřevo, krátký
Sladkost: 1/3

Opět velmi zajímavý a originální zážitek. Voní velice hezky, chuť a dozvuk trochu jednodušší.

Apocalyptic demonic flavours. You will need 3 rounds of exorcism and holy water if you try gem. Just kidding, blenders would say, that this is not for everyone.
