First a bit off-putting on the nose because it smells of sweat🤣but then after some time it becomes juniper, musty pear, honey, chocolate and cinnamon cookies. Barrel notes rather restrained and very elegant!
Tasted at RhumFest, so tasting incomplete... A winey, barrel and spicy nose. On the palate, vanilla and dark chocolate add a gourmet touch. Unusual but very effective.
I didn't think much of this rum, as I was certain that the Madeira fit would soak it up and make it too grapey. Far from it, the nose is very Madeira, but the palate is very pleasant and round, without becoming nauseating, where the wood takes over. A fine discovery.
Schönes Madeira Wein Profil, sehr rund und weich. Für mich fast etwas zu viel Wein aber für viele wird die süße genau richtig sein.
