Rum Artesanal Jamaica Rum MRJB 1982 40yr 45,1%

RX11744 Very good Pot & Column Still Rum Single Cask 236 bottles Under 250€
“Aged treasure with a robust nose but disappointingly subtle palate.”

The Rum Artesanal Jamaica Rum MRJB is a 40-year-old Jamaican gem, produced through a mix of Pot and Column Still distillation and bottled at a cask strength of 45.1% ABV by independent bottler Heinz Eggert GmbH. Limited to 236 bottles, this rare release boasts a remarkable fusion of intense, tropical fruit and spicy aromas, which are enticingly complemented by flavors of wood, roast, marzipan, and tropical fruit. Rum enthusiasts appreciate its complexity and intricate intertwining of flavors, but find that its relatively low ABV has led to a somewhat mellow, weaker finish, compared with other rums in the same price range. Regardless, the Rum Artesanal Jamaica Rum MRJB remains an extraordinary experience for any rum connoisseur, offering a pleasant sipping experience with its smooth texture and well-integrated notes.

“A 40-year-old rum is not often in the glass. The nose surprises with a great intensity - the 45.1% is not felt here at all. On the palate, however, the expectation can not be kept - the rum has simply too little power and evaporates too quickly. The bottom line is still a great experience.”

“Exquisite nose with dense tropical fruit aromatics, subtle woodiness and elegant sweetness. Promising up to this point, even if it is not a firework of complexity. On the palate then unfortunately surprisingly thin, although the flavor picture of the nose is repeated and is still complemented by toasty flavors, but taste-wise it remains overall somewhat weak on the chest to slight wateriness.”

“Trotz des niedrigen ABV zeigt sich der MRJB in der Nase sehr intensiv. Die jamaikanische Herkunft ist nicht zu verleugnen, es dominieren Aromen von Früchten, Holz und Tabak. Alle Aromen sind schön miteinander verwoben, der Geruch macht richtig Lust auf mehr. Am Gaumen kann er jedoch nicht mithalten: Zwar ist der Rum unglaublich weich und die Holznote ist für das Alter überraschend zurückhaltend (man denke da nur an den 1991er KFM oder die alten Appletons), aber insgesamt ist der Geschmack recht dünn. Zumindest für eine Flasche, die auf den Liter hochgerechnet 900 Euro kostet. Das Alter macht diesen Rum fraglos zu etwas Besonderem. Aber es ist keine Abfüllung, die man probiert haben muss. Preis: 449 Euro pro 0,5 Liter”
