Top review from Jakob:

"According to the current state of my personal REV king. Pronounced plum notes and subtle tobacco accompanied by noble dark notes of leather, licorice and wood. The comparison of the 1994 REVs is the rum version of the clash of the titans - who has something for the heavy sweetness, the trenchant plum notes and the tart barrel influences that make up this Marque, has certainly great joy in the cross-comparison as I do. And depending on individual taste, other frontrunners are definitely possible here - in the overall package, I see the V"

Top review from Oliver:

"Wow, the nose alone invites you to linger for hours. Intense, heavy with a pleasant coconut note and great complexity. I would have guessed Foursquare in the blind test. Less "punch" on the palate than its brothers. But very balanced and complex. Ideal "drinking strength".excellent New Yarmouth from 1994!"

"1995 remains an impressive vintage. On par with Artesanal, possibly a touch ahead thanks to even more intense sweet-sour fruit notes. Exquisite."

"2023 and I still love it though at the last bottle 😊 Another wonderful bottling from Valinch & Mallet. Happy that I got my hands on 2 bottles. Remember to rest for 15-20 minutes to release all those wonderful flavours. 2021.12.10 Sitting in my recliner right now enjoying this wonderful rum. No wonder people like it, real funk and fruits from Jamaica. I have the entire series and the general quality level is very high."

Valinch & Mallet • Caroni
1997   19yr   51,8%   €€€€

Top review from Vincent D:

"My first Caroni. It's woody, fruity and sweet. It's hard to believe it's over 62°. The profile changes completely on tasting. Now I understand what makes these rums so special. It's woody and heavy. On retro-olfaction, there are hints of tar in the mouth and the whole thing ends in a strange bitterness. It's disconcerting.2nd tasting, it's even richer. It seems sweeter. I can't find the 62° at all, it just slips away. I finish on an almost salty, metallic note. I kind of understand the interest in Caronis. It makes you want to go for even more typical bottles.Edit: 👍Edit2: oxidation has taken its toll on the power of this sample, but it's still very pleasant and typical of what I now know of Caroni. Very good."

1998   20yr   59,2%   €€€€

Top review from Frank:

"Uitvlugt ist immer so eine Sache. Alle sind für mich großes Kino, aber einige sind eher anstrengend, während andere total Spaß machen. Diese hier ist überwiegend Kontinental gelagert, bin gespannt, ob er trotzdem überzeugen kann. Nase: könnte auch PM sein. Leckere und betörende Mischung aus fruchtig-zitroniger Frische und holzig-röstiger Vanille und Würze. Apfel und Zitrone mit süß-saurer Passionsfrucht im Vordergrund. Irgendwie hat er auch etwas von Wachs, Bienenwachs bzw. Bienenwabe. Dahinter findet sich grüne Kochbanane. Am Ende Vanille und Schokolade. 8,6 Gaumen: wow, intensiv und lecker. Im Vordergrund eindeutig Veilchen-Lakritz (wie die Pastillen aus der Apotheke, die mag ich). Wenn das verklungen ist, kommen etwas Anis, Honig und Werkstatt-Öl (erinnert mich an totalan Fiji, mag ich auch sehr). Diese ziehen sich dann weit in den Abgang. Tatsächlich ein sehr schöner Uit. 8,6"

"Classic Belize: Pronounced pleasing and quaffable, but the rum is somewhat lacking in aromatic complexity. In addition to the sweetness of vanilla, toffee, chocolate still get a few hints of cappuccino and peanuts and leicjte spiciness in the taste spectrum. Very good alcohol integration."

Top review from TheRhumhoe:

"Un rhum fidjien relativement doux. Le nez évoque quelques saveurs médicinales qui sont loin de dominer les débats. Hormis une touche alcoolique perceptible, les fruits exotiques, le bois, le chocolat, les épices et les notes sucrées (caramel, sucre) forment un profil olfactif assez classique. L’attaque en bouche se veut plus incisive. On ressent une certaine lourdeur au palais et une texture sirupeuse. Le profil reste dominé par les saveurs boisées, le chocolat, les fruits exotiques, les épices, les noix et le caramel. L’alcool est bien intégré, même s’il ne passe pas complètement inaperçu. La longueur en bouche est correcte. On retrouve le calme du nez avec des saveurs similaires. À noter une chaleur et un côté toasté qui ne sont pas désagréables en fin de bouche. Un Single Cask tout à fait honorable en somme, mais qui manque d’expression et de profondeur pour être au top de sa catégorie, tant pour son terroir que pour son embouteilleur."

Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:

"#4117 I'd say this one is a bit disappointing because the other releases were pretty good on average. Naturally sweet with fruit and light roasted wood and lightly dry on the palate. Draws nice curtains and the empty glass is nice with stronger chocolate and a very light smoky note."
