How does this rum taste?
No. 21B EHP Rum, produced at Guyana's Diamond Distillery and bottled by Nobilis Rum, is a limited release aged for 9 years, gracing just 290 bottles at its cask strength of 67.5% ABV. User reviews describe it as a potentially complex rum with a prominent caramel and vanilla nose, intertwined with fruity and spicy notes. Taste notes emphasize yellow fruits, licorice, and a peppery finish. However, some find the alcohol integration lacking, with a rather sharp profile. While praised for its aromatic intensity, it seems to require more aging for better balance and maturity.

#5055 18.01.2025 Enjoying a few samples at home. Nose Medium intense, light wood, faint roasted, spice, fruits, light citrus, light plum, light anise. Palate Round, light dry, light wood, citrus, spice, light caramel, light anise, light prunes, faint coffee. Finish Medium to long, light wood, fruits, light citrus, faint cherry, light anise, light coffee. The empty glass has chocolate, licorice, light caramel and dried fruits. Needs to rest for a while to really open up properly.
A very confusing rum which does not make in detail. The nose is however relatively soft and light with notes of dried fruits, spices, caramel, vanilla, nuts, coffee and chocolate. On the palate, we enter another dimension: if we manage to feel the yellow and tropical fruits, we feel mostly a discomfort because of the alcohol which is not very well integrated. It is pungent, very aggressive and difficult to bind in mouth. There's also some bitterness with the spice and leather, but it doesn't help to soften the overall profile. The finish is quite average in length, quite strong and warm, turned to spices, coffee and dried fruits. A rum difficult to tame, which could have spent a few more years in aging to be more digestible.
The three Nobilis 21A, B and C in the test... now B: Nose: unexpectedly fresh, dry and very fruity. Pear and kiwi at the forefront, plus Paulus and yellow lemon. Sweetness of sugar syrup and right next to it solvent. Behind that, clearly cigar or pipe tobacco. Not too bad, but seems very young. 8.1 Palate: spicy and creamy, with a predominance of malted cereals and that yeasty, doughy note again, reminiscent of brioche. A little sharp and unripe. I also find a clear tobacco note on the palate. Liquorice and nutty at the back. 7,7 The feeling that these Guyanas should have been left in the barrel for a few more years is setting in.
Also quite immature. Good beginnings on the nose, which can not keep up on the palate.
