West Indies S.B.S Barbados PX Cask Finish (RX11281)

106 EUR

Ø Market Value

Very good 186 bottles Under 250€

Introducing the S.B.S Barbados PX Cask Finish, a unique rum distilled in 2000 at the West Indies distillery in Barbados and aged for 21 years. Selected and bottled by 1423 World Class Spirits, this limited release features only 186 bottles made from pot still molasses with a 47.1% ABV. Users noted its atypical Barbados rum characteristics and picked up unusual tastes such as tea, dried fruit, woody, and sherry, with hints of marshmallow and chocolate. Those who tasted it mentioned smoky wood and a subdued sherry finish that doesn't overpower the rum. While some found it a bit specific, others appreciated this uncommon flavor experience. Overall, this rum is an intriguing option for those seeking something different from typical Barbadian rums.

„PX finish and 2000 WIRD does work well overall. However I do prefer the plain, unaltered versions of this rum.“

„I think that the flaw in this rum is the ABV if it would have been higher I'm pretty sure this would be a great rum. The Baja profile is there and so is the PX cask finish. I do like the smoky wood on the profile and the rubber note is kind of nice too.“

„It's Advent, there's charcoal on the grill, I'm sitting in a pine forest, I'm holding marshmallows over the grill. This scenery describes the smell very well. There's plenty of dried fruit to go along with it. On the finish I have something smoky and cigar. The sherry finish is present, but does not dominate in my opinion.“

„Maybe the sample wasn't the right one because I'm not getting much px here. It is very enjoyable though (my surroundings help much). Overal it's a subtly and lightly flavoured yet greatly balanced. Some cigar/cognac-esque flavours. Coffee/mocha. Bay leaf. Very good. Love it.“

„The nose is very atypical of our landmarks of Barbados and its greediness! Here it is Dried fruits/Toasted/Marshmallow The mouth is creamy and pulls on the woody, smoky and like a touch of olive. The finish is on peppery chocolate/cigar. The Sherry finish is only slightly present. Blind, impossible to think of La Barbades. Very specific tasting rum and less rum of greed.“
