How does this rum taste?
Most love the powerful yet balanced cask strength, layered wood, caramel and fruity notes with a very long warm finish. Some find the high ABV taxing. Consensus: a serious, characterful Dominican.
If you enjoy full‑proof Latin rums and are curious about a gentle high‑ester kick, this keeps the Dominican DNA but adds volume and complexity without any added sugar.
Beginners or anyone sensitive to strong alcohol or ester notes; drinkers who prefer soft, sweet 40% Dominicans or who dislike warm, peppery finishes.

This is also a nice release. Once rested it releases nice flavours and I like the warm oily palate with light fruit and caramel. The finish is very long and warm and it draws really nice curtains in the glass.
High Ester Dominican Rum. 15 years old, tropically aged Dominican rum. Proportion in batch 80%. The remaining 20% comes from an Aroma Grande, High Ester. The blend peps up the smooth mild Dominican style and delicate Jamaican influences are felt. Thanks to the powerful 65%, the rum, which is rather slender and round in the mouth, appears very voluminous. The progress in the glass after 20 minutes is also remarkable.
Tasted at home Opened this bottle after the rom de luxe bottle from Belize (59%). Very nice rum. Definitely recommend it. The ABV is quite high, but the alcohol is well integrated. The high ester blend something you'd like or dislike, but for me it is definitely a plus.
A dessert-like, caramel rum. The strength gets in the way.
