    How does this rum taste?

    Romero & Sons Aged 9 Years is an Ecuadorian rum crafted from molasses and sugar cane juice, distilled using a pot still, and aged for nine years. With an ABV of 44%, it exhibits complex scents of vanilla, baked apples, and caramel, alongside notes of wood, honey, and baking spices in its flavor profile. Despite its intriguing spice, user reviews often cite a lack of complexity, dominated by woody and caramelized tones. This limited release with only 1200 bottles offers a unique representation of a Pot Still spirit, though it might not cater to everyone's palate, occasionally noted for bitterness and an alcoholic character.

    This is in a spices sense really spicy. It has its flaws but it is interesting. I would love to see this as a 20 yo with 50%.

    Ich finde diesen Romer & Sond gar nicht so schlecht. In der Nase eigentlich überwiegend Gewürze, etwas Karamell ist auch erkennbar. Am Gaumen haben wir dann viel Holz und auch winterliche Gewürze wie Zimt sind erkennbar.

    Also irgendwie ist dieses Jahr der Wurm drin beim Adventskalender von Kirsch Whisky. Auch dieser hier ist versammt langweilig und hat keine facetten. Schmeckt einfach nur süß ein wenig nach karamel und das wars. Zumal war er letztes mal auch schon im Kalender mit dabei....
