24.10.2020 Lovely tasting arranged by one of my suppliers of rum. Notes Very dark in colour. Nose Medium intense, wood, cinnamon, plum, light chocolate, faint leather. Palate Oily, balanced, complex, wood, tannins, light roasted, faint smoke, plum, light citrus, faint chocolate, raisin. Finish Medium to long, wood, dried fruit, faint chocolate, roasted, faint smoke.
A classic navy profile on the nose with tropical fruit from Jamaica alongside the heavy dark notes from Guyana. On the palate, the interplay remains, molasses sweetness, dark chocolate, tobacco, dark pepper flavors, but again also tropical fruit notes that flash with an estrous freshness. A very good navy release.
Auto-translatedI would never have dreamed of tasting this rum - liquid history like no other rum. Extremely complex from nose to finish. Very heavy on the nose with lots of toasted wood, leather, tobacco and winter spices. There is also plum, which is prominent right through to the finish. Burnt sugar provides the really only subtle sweetness. The alcohol is noticeable, but not unpleasant. A wonderful rum and a must for every rum collector, even if there are certainly other rums at a better PLV
