Gefällt mir genauso gut wie die Abfüllung im Schwesterfass.
On the nose tropical fruit basket (papaya, mango...), glue, caramel and that typical vinegar-iodine note. On the palate tropical fruit, dark chocolate and bacon. The 68.4% is well integrated....and VRW Marque is just tops at LP! I would have liked to try the sister barrel....
Début marqué par l’acétone, le miel d’acacia, l’encaustique, attaque nerveuse en bouche sur l’alcool puis un joli développement aromatique fruité exotique de complexité moyenne surtout soutenu en longueur par l’alcool, au final assez intéressant sans être non plus explosif.
A rum from the Samples de Luxe forward calendar. A rather violent nose with glue, old varnished wood, tropical fruit and a certain sweetness. The palate also attacks hard, but more on the fruit (papaya) and even a very pleasant vegetal and floral side. A touch of varnished wood, as on the nose. The finish is long, warm, spicy and black-tea-like. A false badass with complexity and a certain sweetness. I love it!
