Clairin 2018 Casimir

Best batch of Casimir Earlier batches of Casimir I found to be inferior to, say, Clairin Sajous. No more, this is the best clairin I’ve had — probably the best white rum of

That Boutique-y Rum Company Caroni 23-year

Rich, tight, flavourful Oaky nose, smells a bit of green plantains frying in a buttered pan. Well integrated alcohol, rich mouthfeel with a woody dryness that keeps a natural

Hampden Estate 8-year

Grassy and funky On the nose, it has strong oak, toast, pineapple and fried banana. Very unmistakably Jamaican. The palate hits you with grassier notes very unexpe

Pere Labat Blanc 59

Agricultural explosion Tough guy agricole that you’ll not forget. Nose: iodine, a brief whiff of toasted coconut and wet hay. Palate: A brief hint of fennel or fenugreek

Superb cachaça Very pleasant nose, herbal notes, but dominated by aromas of ripe fruit and white pepper. Banana and guava strike the palate, long mouthfeel for a w

A rhum of one's own This is a stunning product. The wild yeast fermentation provides such a rich pallette of flavours and aromas that it is guaranteed to provoke some, bu

El Dorado Special Reserve 15-year

Great value This is a dark, slightly sweetened rum, which makes me quite sceptical although it is probably not enough sweetness for some. Visibly coloured, a bit

Rivers Royal Granadian White 69

Perfect white rum Smells of white pepper, fresh sugarcane, coconut with brown skin on it, a bit banana and orange. Quite viscous, nearly oily mouthfeel and the alcohol

Paranubes Oaxaca Aguardiente de Caña

Remarkable and unique One of the richest experiences you can have from a white rum. This is made from wild fermented cane juice in a mountainous region of northern Oaxaca,

Plantation Xaymaca Special Dry

Really great blend Very meticulously well blended Jamaican. I agree that this bottle could make you believe it was a quite expensive Hampden release. The nose has some o

That Boutique-y Rum Company Secret Distillery #1 Jamaica 9-year

Great pot still Jamaica rum I cannot understand why certain bother to taste and review categories they obviously don’t appreciate as such. This is a rock solid Jamaica pot still

By The Dutch Batavia Arrack 8-year

Subtle, yet flavourful First, I must admit I am not very experienced with arracks, so before I state “typical arrack” I must admit I would not know what I am comparing with.

Damoiseau 5-year

Fruity agricole French rhum agricole not from Martinique has a bit more freedom in their production technique and this one from Guadeloupe’s Damoiseau is surprisingly

HSE VSOP Reserve Speciale 4-year

House of Bourbon Great rhum agricole aged in bourbon casks. Not super complex so it could be a six overall, but given the low price I add two bottles easily. This bott

Savanna Lontan 57

Different tune, different funk This is an utterly eccentric rum. On the nose it is briney with a strong smell of olives and artichoke, rubber and pineapple. For the uninitiated, “

Absolutely the best white blend I have had Ok. Rating this an 8 is perhaps unfair to a good, single pot still rum with the same rating. But I try to follow a principle where the scale is subdiv

Transcontinental Rum Line 2012 Jamaica WP

Grand funk A bold, 57% navy strength expression of classic Jamaica rum. Young and crisp, (four years in barrels, I think) but full of complex notes of banana, pi

Smith and Cross Traditional Jamaica Navy Strength

Good Jamaican blend — top value First, I am most impressed with this being a blend without any added sugar and being so cheap. The nose strikes you with leather, toast and coconu

Trois Rivieres Cuvée Bois d'Inde

Fruity, bitter but smooth Strong aromas of fried banana, tobacco, oak and grass. Very smooth, viscous mouthfeel, toffee and leather, dried untreated apricot and banana, a brief

That Boutique-y Rum Company Caroni Distillery Trinidad 20-year

Distinct rum Lovely nose with a hint of chocolate and the distinct herbal notes you’ll find in quite a few rums from Trinidad and Guyana. Medium bodied, nicely i

J. Bally Blanc 50

Solid agricole Aromas of saw dust, grapefruit and citron succade, really pleasant nose altogether. Slightly viscous mouthfeel, well integrated alcohol without any bu

Angostura 7-year

Nice Trinidadian A straightforward, nice expression of Trinidad rum. Compared to Angostura 5 it is a bit more mellow, as would be expected. Aromas of oak, dust, vanill

Organic pleasure Sympathetic concept from this producer with all aspects of production being organic. Smells great and tastes like a more than decent rhum agricole. A

Foursquare 2007 12-year

Hot and oaky Dark amber with a greenish hue (that could be ambient light fooling my eyes). Nose: Caramel, oak, vanilla, leather, sugarcane and a slight touch of

Party like it’s 1804 Clairins are the funky, voodoo-infused cousins of agricoles but Vaval is the young and most reckless one. Nose reveals a yeast strain reminiscent of

Rum Nation Jamaica White Pot Still

Funky, but modest on fruit Cask strength at 57 % ABV, pot still Jamaican white rum, with lots of esters. Nose is surprisingly stringent. Did not open up after twenty minutes

Rhum JM VSOP 4-year

Correct agricole The nose reveals just barely notes of grass, cane juice and caramelised fruit amongst a quite strong presence of oak that is diversified with some clo

Angostura 5-year

Good mixer Nose of vanilla, hint of oak and passion fruit. The palate strikes with a bit of funk, young barrel and slightly grassy fruitiness. A bit stinging, sh

Mount Gay XO Extra Old

Good XO Interesting nose of oak with a faint hint of toasted pineapple and candied orange. Quite dry with some fruity sweetness that seems to derive from.

Angostura White Reserva

Perfect mixer for light drinks Nose: A bit of new oak, reminiscent of young fruit brandies. No great bouquet to mention in that it is anonymous, there is a slight hint of coconut sh

Surprisingly complex and unique Tasting such a staple rum for the first time in a couple of decades did not trigger expectations. But this is an overall unique experience that is har

Angostura Reserva 3-year

Great White mixer Nose with faint oak, not a surprise since this rum is aged and then filtered. Coconut, lime peel and some grass. Rich coconut notes, citrus and lyc

Habitation Velier 2006 Forsyths WPM 11-year

Great rum, but steep price This is NOT an agricole as has been suggested but a Jamaican single pot still rum, pretty high in esters. While this is a great rum, I was unimpressed

La Mauny Blanc 50

Well-made agricole blanc A whiff of cellar on the nose, but cottonsedge and sugarcane comes through. On the palate a bit rubber and hay, figs, banana peel minus the bitterne

Diplomatico Planas

Not of particular interest A bit harsh nose, even after 15 minutes in the glass. Reminiscent of oak, but slightly chemical, with no appeasing esters to support it. A neutral r
