    Extremely oily texture, heavy and opulent sweetness that makes me think of maple syrup in addition to molasses. This is gradually joined by fruity aromas, the wood also announces itself with smoky-bitter notes reminiscent of coffee. A sip of history in two senses - not only the age of the rum speaks for itself, also the profile is no longer found in this form today. Makes fun!

    Sensational navy rum. Dark, intense, toasty. A real rum concentrate!

    Interesting to be able to taste such an old rum. Very strong flavor profile and heavy sweetness! Thanks for the sample, Sven (Rum Rarities). Fun, but I need some time for the tasting due to the tart notes.

    Perfect one! Great old navy.
