    Blindly, I would have guessed a Foursquare on the palate

    Transcontinental Rum Line El Salvador je jedinečný rum, který spojuje tropické zrání s evropským dozráváním, což dodává jeho profilu hloubku a komplexnost. Ve vůni lze rozpoznat výrazné tóny koření, sušeného ovoce a kakaa, doplněné jemnými estery a náznaky leštidla. Chuť je bohatá, s důrazem na dřevité a kořeněné tóny, které harmonicky splývají s vanilkou, karamelem a sušeným ovocem. Jemná praženost a estery přidávají rumu na zajímavosti a vytvářejí dlouhotrvající a intenzivní závěr. --- English: Transcontinental Rum Line El Salvador is a unique rum that blends tropical aging with European finishing, adding depth and complexity to its profile. The nose reveals pronounced notes of spices, dried fruits, and cocoa, complemented by subtle esters and hints of polish. The palate is rich, with an emphasis on woody and spicy tones that harmonize beautifully with vanilla, caramel, and dried fruits. A gentle roasted character and esters enhance the rum's intrigue, delivering a long-lasting and intense finish. --- Deutsch: Transcontinental Rum Line El Salvador ist ein einzigartiger Rum, der tropische Reifung mit europäischer Nachreifung verbindet und seinem Profil Tiefe und Komplexität verleiht. In der Nase finden sich ausgeprägte Noten von Gewürzen, Trockenfrüchten und Kakao, ergänzt durch subtile Ester und einen Hauch von Politur. Der Geschmack ist reichhaltig, mit einem Schwerpunkt auf holzigen und würzigen Tönen, die sich harmonisch mit Vanille, Karamell und Trockenfrüchten verbinden. Ein sanft gerösteter Charakter und Ester verleihen dem Rum zusätzlichen Reiz und sorgen für ein langanhaltendes und intensives Finish.

    Who would guess Salvador IB blinded tasting? I don’t.. was thinking about Barbados, Jamaica or Guayana… The color is quite light yellow..golden..simply not dark. The smell - interesting mixture of sweet, woody and sometimes esters- like nail polish or glue. The taste - intense, alcoholic, but after resting in a glass for a while, sweet cocoa or coffee and wood appears. For me personally I would prefer less % at about 45-50 with keeping the same taste - I would buy it again and again..
