01.06.2025 Retasting one more time while relaxing in front of the telly 😊 Pretty nice wood and roasted notes with vanilla, dried fruit, and some honey. There is a nice smoky note in there with som nutts and berries (cherry I think). Price to quality is still pretty good and it needs little while in the glass to open up properly. ---------------- Retasting at the German Rum Fest 2024 sample. ---------------- #4436 Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Notes. A new release where they have burned the casks very hard giving the rum a nice roasted wood notes with some light peat and fresh floral notes.
Compared with the Single Batch 100% Canne Bleue, this cuvée is more attractive and aromatic. This is due in part to its distillation method and higher alcohol content. The nose opens with dried fruits, candied fruits and a spicy woodiness that turns to more toasty notes and very sweet caramel. On the palate, the extreme toasting reveals very intense empyreumatic notes, focusing on roasted hazelnuts, smokiness, cocoa and tobacco. Dried fruit and raisins combine with earthy, spicy notes to create a round, balanced and original profile for this type of rum. The finish continues the dark notes, leather, spices (nutmeg), nuts and dried fruit. An innovative profile that deserves to be experimented with older vintages. The value for money is worth the detour.
4-year-old rum aged in new oak casks. Surprisingly sweet on the nose, with notes of vanilla and caramel, but very woody on the palate, not sweet at all. No finish, so 100% cane, fruit, spices and wood. Very good value for money.
