How does this rum taste?
The Distiller's Drawer #97 Pot Stilled New England Rum from Privateer Rum Distillery offers a complex aromatic profile, combining honey, nutty, and vanilla notes. On the palate, there's a prominent woody and nutty essence with hints of yellow fruits and nougat, underscored by vanilla. Despite its 55.7% ABV, users note that alcohol integration can be improved. The rum elicits qualities reminiscent of both British and Bajan styles, with distinct elements of spice and warmth. Some detect a bourbon-like character, making it a unique expression from the USA. While not universally loved due to its boldness and alcohol presence, it offers a rich tasting journey appreciated by adventurous rum enthusiasts on platforms like RumX, a hub for rum discussions and trading.

Nachgeholte Verkostung des Rums vom 04.12. des RumX-Adventskalenders 2023: Wow, der schmeckt mir, ein potenter Rum! Was, das ist ein Rum aus den USA, ein Privateer? Hatte ich, glaube ich, noch nie im Glas, hätte aber auf einen mittelalten und mittelguten Clarendon getippt.
Bei der Nachverkostung gefällt er mir minimal besser, aber immer noch dee schwächste von allen Privateer-Rums die ich im Glas hatte.
Sensation of Obstler (continental fruit basket) on the nose and palate. Combined with a noticeable sweetness akin to honey and caramel. Alcohol integration is not perfect but acceptable. Notes of perfume and soap on the finish.
Gefällig, aber etwas nichtssagend. An der Nase schon recht verhalten, Honigsüsse trifft auf dezentes Karamell und etwas Gewürze und Holzeinflüsse. Am Gaumen wird das Bild von recht präsenter Würzschärfe und Röstaromen flankiert, der Alkohol wirkt nicht gänzlich auf den Punkt integriert. Grundsätzlich ein angenehmes Release, leider mit ein paar Schönheitsfehlern.
