Overproof White Rum NYE/WK

#4042 Keep'em coming, this is the good stuff 😊 Again a very fruity release with nice floral notes. Spicy and oily palate with some esters and natural sweetness. Price to quality is very good in my mind and I like the caramel and herbal notes in the empty glass.

Clearly more esters and alcohol in the nose ggü the Hampden! But not unpleasant.the palate is angehm balanced, creamy and intense... to the end comes some spiciness added.... The finish is velvety spicy and intense!A successful bottling

It's loaded with strawberries, esters and chemicals. I also smell a little bit of cheese, saltiness and meat like some Haity. It's a great mix. I can't help but be reminded of Savanna Herr in body, more caramel etc towards the end. Excellent white rum.

This rum is the definition of bringing out the heavy artillery. The nose is phenomenally concentrated and powerful, driven by funky notes, overripe fruit and a fresh floral touch. There's a hint of olive, but also fermented notes that turn to cheese, as well as an animal side that tugs at meat. A beastly, intense profile. The attack on the palate leaves nothing to be desired: a funky explosion annihilates the palate with its fruity flavors, citrus and tropical fruits on one side, and medicinal flavors on the other, with notes of esters, glue, solvents and fermentation. The vegetal side is more subdued, but gives way to unexpected spicy notes. Tannins come to the fore on the finish. Alcohol is remarkably well integrated. Despite the rather rough and robust profile, the finish is long but rather fine and elegant. Fruits, caramel and spices bring a certain greediness, while vegetal and phenolic notes add their share of intensity. A superb white rum, which can be drunk neat or in mixology to boost a cocktail.

Superbe blanc 🤩

Nice vegetal notes, rubber and tar, acetone, really pleasant, a very good "very high ester" in my opinion, more than what I've tasted in Dok for example.

Un blanc jamaïcain comme j’aime ! Plein d’ester, plein de fruit, de l’olive ! C’est très sympa ça !! Avec un p’tit fruit de la passion ça doit être excellent !!

Slušná nestařená Jamajka, která se dá sehnat za rozumné peníze. Ve vůni hodně esterů, chemické tóny a ovoce, v chuti je poněkud neotesanější, minerální tóny a dokonce olivy. Doporučuju spíše do koktejlů, samotný rum pak pro znalce.

This is an incredibly fun pour. The funk is through the roof but the profile is pretty different from Hampden, which is my reference for ester levels this high. This hits both more umami and mineral notes, with less of the rotting fruits.

It's very similar to Aficionados x Fine Drams.

For being overproof, it's pretty soft towards the end. I can smell plum, earth, light banana, grass, but also sweet fruits. Yeah, it's good.
