Another great Velier in my mind. Once rested you get all the wonderful flavours from the glass even without lifting the glass to your nose. An intense very well balanced Clarendon. Fruity with light wood and it draws really nice curtains in the glass.

Very warm, earthy Jamaican with bananas, chocolate and no acidity, funk, esters. Toasty aromas but hardly any tannins or bitterness. Needs to settle down, 20 minutes in the glass works wonders. Not mega complex, but solid and round.

Amazing rum, it feels a little shy on the nose and then it’s a bomb on The palate. Very sweet, fruity, creamy, spicy, complex and punchy flavors. Has definatly lots of foursquare vibes. Very pleasant around mid palate where I get a lot of pastry cream vibes. Nice sweet roasted metallic long finish. Impressive that it’s only 9 years old.

I tasted this rum again years later. I'm now more familiar with Jamaican distilleries. My opinion of the pastry register hasn't changed, here no fruity funk but lots of greed, essentially woody (coconut, vanilla, spices, blond tobacco, nuts). Almost a foursquare profile 😅Super nice. It went out at 100€ a keel, a bargain at that price today.

Edit edit: 😉 nochmal eine frische Flasche aufgemacht (Danke an SaibotZtar) lecker wieder nach oben korrigiert. Der Preis war damals schon gut für das was er kann. Sehr lecker, danke @Serge gut ausgewählt. Geschmacksprofil super getroffen. Und ein guter Konter zum gestrigen Tasting. Edit: Nachdem ich noch das Sample mit einem kleinen Rest drin gefunden habe, musste ich nochmal probieren. Hat sich gelohnt damals eine Flasche davon zu holen. Aber musste ihn trotzallem ein bißchen nach unten korrigieren.

Delicious! A lovely pastry delicacy with a hint of yellow fruit.

Hier wäre ich vermutlich blind nicht in Jamaika gelandet und schon gar nicht bei einem Monymusk. Das Profil geht für mich klar Richtung Foursquare, Belize oder sogar NY94. Sehr runder Jamaikaner ohne Funk mit super PLV!

My last addition from the series, stood here for a long time, often tasted, but still no tasting notes...? Not at all...Nose: fruity-sweet-spicy attack. Right away with coconut and cream toffee, plus ripe peach and tangerine. The sweetness almost goes towards marshmallow. Behind that, cherry wood, a light smoky note and cocoa powder. Delicious and pleasant.Palate: intense and complex. Dry and slightly bitter at first, then salty before moving into spicy. Here then tart nutmeg with pecan, vanilla and then slightly towards umami. Out the back lemon zest with apple, but slightly metallic note and fresh green branches. A really good Mony taster.

On the nose I have coconut and tropical fruit, especially vanilla croissants 😋 The palate is very spicy with lots of licorice. A really good Monymusk!
