Just like the first version, this is truly a beast. However, the second version feels (from memory) rounder and more delicate. There are hints of fruits alongside Caroni notes (which however are pretty much overwhelmed by leather and wood)
Interesting one. I will remember this rum mainly because of the sourness and tech taste combo.
Compared to the previous "Beast" this one is slightly better, but only by margins. I got a good price on this bottle and that convinced me to get it. The nose is woody and smoky with leather, varnish and solvents in almost perfect harmony. The palate is intense, complex and medium bitter with roasted oak, leather varnish and a hint of tobacco and coffee. The finish is long and bitter with roasted oak. Price to quality can be argued, but it is a palate teaser.
