The Chalong Bay Double Barrel Rum delights with a fragrant nose of vanilla, sugarcane, cinnamon, and citrus, complemented by subtle agricole scents. On the palate, it offers a peppery and spicy experience with notes of armagnac, woody undertones, and hints of grapes. Users appreciate its balance and complexity, highlighting a pleasant influence of French oak and Armagnac casks. The rum's unique character reveals exotic fruits, coconut, and a touch of caramel, making it both softer and distinct. Despite its young age, it exhibits noteworthy barrel influence, suggesting excellent aging potential.

“Really nice nose - but taste unfortunately really very woody, bitter sour and extremely dry and furry astringent ... Here, the otherwise so beautiful fruity spicy Chalong bay rum unfortunately has no chance against Armagnac cask and Virgin oak to arrive... Too bad! Had I hoped for more of.”

“A young Thai rum with plenty of flavor and deliciousness. The nose combines the floral and vegetal flavors of sugarcane with exotic fruits (lychee) and citrus fruits for a very round, smooth whole. Mild spices add a touch of complexity. The attack on the palate is more lively, carried by lots of spice, notes of young wood and some empyreumatic flavors that have had a certain impact on the profile despite the slight ageing. Floral notes and exotic fruits return in force, with a few mineral and caramelized notes to complement. Overall, the wine is well realized and the alcohol well integrated. On the finish, the fruit is more subdued, replaced by menthol, floral, herbal and spicy notes. Good length. A very pleasant rum with a varied profile, confirming Asia's rise to prominence in the rum market.”

“Probiert auf dem 12 GRF in Berlin: Für die kurze Lagerung erstaunlich viel Einfluss des Fasses (Virgin Oak). Mit mehr Prozent und noch älter auf jeden Fall Potential vorhanden”
