Riped banana, molases and esterish aroma; sweeter honey, tropical fruit and molases in the body; not so interesting rum in the complex

Doorly's White 3-Year rum

Doorly's White 3-Year review posted 1 hour ago by Rocky 🇸🇰 | 99 ratings

Toto je môj druhý skúšaný biely rum, ten prvý bol Plantation 3 Stars Artisanal. Stále nejde o moju hlavnú parketu drinkov, no keďže ide o obľúbený Doorly's, nemôžem ho ignorovať. Klasicky známy tvar fľaše, farba jemne žltkastá. Vôňa mi príde dosť nevýrazná, v pozadí jasne etanolového oparu cítiť najviac asi limetku. Sladkosť tak akurát, čakal som o niečo suchší rum, vzhľadom k 3-ročnému zreniu je aj ostrosť v normále. Dá sa bez problémov piť samotný, napokon nie som zástancom miešania drahších drinkov so sladenými nápojmi (na to úplne postačí lacný biely rum zo supermarketu). Každopádne spomenutý Plantation mi prišiel viac vychutený a tým aj zaujímavejší. Nehovoriac o cene, ktorá bola cca o 40% nižšia. V pohode, dopijem ho, ale nepredpokladám, že sa k nemu ešte niekedy vrátim, uprednostním určite 5-ročný v podobnej cenovej relácii, kde sú oveľa viac prítomné dubové tóny. Subjektívne slabšia šestka.

Need some advice on Jamaican rums

Posted 1 Jun '23 by Mr. Rumantic 🇩🇪 | 254 ratings

Whisky is more popular in Europa as well. You can buy good Whisky everywhere, good rum not. Still the high class Whisky is getting insanly expensive. So more and more switch to Rum to collect and resell. At the same time rum has a long tradition in europen countrys like England, France, Denmark or Germany. Jamaica high ester rum was only for that market for a long time (Blendind or "Verschnitt" in...
Cubaney Solera Grand Reserve Selecto 18-Year rum

Cubaney Solera Grand Reserve Selecto 18-Year review posted 1 hour ago by Laszlo 🇩🇪 | 11 ratings

No doubt, this rum is very good. Fruity in smell, caramel and wood in the taste which is really smooth. But I am missing the wow factor to rate this rum excellent. Decent drink, I recommend it to everyone, but something is missing for me.

Popped my bottle and had a first taste, will update this review with more. But it's insanely good.

Qualche nota vegetale, ma lascia molto a desiderare

Plantation Overproof O.F.T.D. rum

Plantation Overproof O.F.T.D. review posted 6 hours ago by Kamamura 🇨🇿 | 37 ratings

In the glass, the rum is a darker shade of copper-brown, no doubt courtesy to caramel E150a.

On the nose, there we are welcome with burnt sugar and some fruity scent together with hefty dose of sinus-clearing alcohol, with slightly acrid overtones. That's alright - it's a manly, sledgehammerish style of a rum, no fancy sipper for manicured ladies!

The taste is sweet, caramel, candies, marmalade, dried fruits, delivered by tongue-numbing oomph of alcohol - there are not defects, no foul aftertastes, it's all very clean, and the after taste is lingering, warming, with very little bitterness.

Overall, it's a very pleasant overproof rum, distinct enough to smash through sugary mixes, and a staple of my alcohol supply. Not a super complex experience, but it lacks the sulphury tail of Pussers, and is more interesting than the somewhat one-dimensional sweet smokiness of Woods. Highly recommended!

Gran Imperio Type 7 rum

Gran Imperio Type 7 review posted 6 hours ago by gisch 🇵🇱 | 15 ratings

Cheap, poor quality rum from polish dicount store Biedronka. Not very unpleasant, but very thin, almost no finish. Number 7 on bottle is only a marketing trick, good rums don't do such things.

Plantation 2007 Jamaica Single Cask Sauternes Finish rum

Plantation 2007 Jamaica Single Cask Sauternes Finish review posted 12 hours ago by HunterRomario 🇨🇿 | 354 ratings

Single Cask 2020. Destilováno na Jamajce v palírnách Clarendon a Long Pond. Tropické zrání Clarendon 11,5 roku v sudech po bourbonu, Long Pond 11 let taky v sudech po bourbonu. V Evropě pak Clarendon zrál rok v sudu po koňaku, Long Pond to samé, ale rok a půl. Poté ještě 6 měsíců v sudech po sauternes. Ve výsledku tedy 13 let zrání.
Alkohol: 46,8 %
Původ: Jamajka/Francie
Aroma: Med, zralé ovoce, květy, vosk, piliny, vanilka, větrovost. (84 b)
Chuť: Čerstvé dřevo, dřevitost, mírně ovocnost, jinak jen ostrost a hlavně, zejména v dochuti, nepříjemná hořkost. To je můj první Plantation, který je vyloženě v chuti hnusný. (65 b)
Body: 74/100
Shrnutí: Decový vzorek stačil na několik ochutnávek, a bylo ho, vzhledem k tomu, jak mi tohle plnění nesedlo, až až. Mám asi 60 ochutnaných rumů od téhle značky, a tohle je pro mě s přehledem to nejhorší.

Havana Club Anejo Especial rum

Havana Club Anejo Especial review posted 16 hours ago by Cool Breeze (PREMIUM) 🇺🇸 | 404 ratings

Tasted thanks to the Big Kahuna who shared his bottle with me. Rich dark gold in color. Signature earthy aroma of this distiller. Unlike any of the other HC offerings in that this has a fiercely intensive Cuban rum up front flavor with a quick dry patching finish. Woody astringency without the needles. Very innovative.

Gosling's 151 rum

Gosling's 151 review posted 20 hours ago by gisch 🇵🇱 | 15 ratings

Where is the lovely smell of Dark Seal? 151 is much more alcoholic and much less aromatic, in drinks it's just a % filler (trying it solo is unpleasant, I completely don't understand how some people wrote it is good sipper). Avoid it and buy 40 % version.

Gosling's Black Seal rum

Gosling's Black Seal review posted 20 hours ago by gisch 🇵🇱 | 15 ratings

Absolutely lovely smell - you can smell an empty glass forever. Taste is not so great solo (alcohol is rather harsh), but for drinks (of course Dark'n Stormy - I didn't drink a better version than with this rum) it's absolutely fantastic stuff.

Botucal Reserva Exclusiva rum

Botucal Reserva Exclusiva review posted 20 hours ago by gisch 🇵🇱 | 15 ratings

Very, very sweet, oily and creamy - I know it is desired by many as a characteristics of "premium" rum, but for me it is almost as much non-authentic as it could be. Next to sweetness alcohol is quite noticeable - for rum which has ca. 10 years in barrel it is a bit strange. Very likely most of the blend are cheap multi-column distillates - you pay first of all for a fancy bottle (and lot of added sugar), not a great product.

Myers's Original Dark rum

Myers's Original Dark review posted 20 hours ago by gisch 🇵🇱 | 15 ratings

Dark and mellow - I agree with that. Nice smell of molasses, a bit hogo, even sipping is not terrible. Interesting overall and seems to be authentic old fashioned (in good way). One of the best mixers in it's price.

Michlers White Overproof rum

Michlers White Overproof review posted 20 hours ago by gisch 🇵🇱 | 15 ratings

Very alcoholic (more than many other rums with such a ABV) and poor in funk notes. Tastes a bit artificial and cheap. It is maybe not the worst white rum, but I am sure that anything bottled in Jamaica such as Wray&Nephew would be much better (and maybe even cheaper).

Pelicano Barbados 13°10‘N 59°32‘W rum

Pelicano Barbados 13°10‘N 59°32‘W review posted 20 hours ago by gisch 🇵🇱 | 15 ratings

It reffers a bit to agricole rums - I don't know why, maybe some time in barrels after dry red wine did it. Maybe the worst stuff from Barbados, even Mount Gay Eclipse is a few classes better. Disgusting solo, barely drinkable as a mixer. Much worse than Jamaica version.
