“In my opinion, the few percent more alcohol compared to the sister bottlings from Corman and Romdeluxe have a very positive effect here - the heavy sweetness is much better integrated and is far less dominant than in the other two bottlings. I like it best of this trio, even if the aromatic spectrum of this profile is largely focused on the classic notes: Caramel sweetness, café au lait, chocolate, subtle spices and some tobacco. In direct comparison with its big brothers from Velier, the aromatic depth is lacking, which is certainly also due to the significantly lower alcohol content; in my opinion, the sweetness is also a little too dominant and leaves too little room for the fresher spicy notes in particular to fully develop. Nevertheless, this bottling is fun and offers a rum of a high quality level.”

“Another great release from Romdeluxe living up to its name. The nose is woody and fruity with some chocolate. The chocolate really comes out in the empty glass once rested. The palate is woody and has roasted notes to it with dried fruit, chocolate, honey and a nice hint of coffee. The finish is long and woody with honey, chocolate and coffee. Price to quality can be discussed, but it is a very nice rum.”

“This one is really fun! Typical molasses Diamond from the 1996 vintage. Fortunately, compared to other bottlings, the alcohol content is not chosen too low!”
