    How does this rum taste?

    The S.B.S Venezuela is a limited-edition rum from Venezuela, distilled in 2006 by 1423 World Class Spirits. Aged for 16 years in column stills, this 50% ABV rum offers a distinctive aroma with caramel, dark chocolate, and vanilla, complemented by smoky and woody notes. On the palate, vanilla and burnt sugar flavors are prominent, with hints of barrel, cinnamon, and caramel. Despite its smooth, balanced profile, some users note a shorter finish. Its vibrant color and influence from the cask endow it with complex flavors reminiscent of a well-aged Venezuelan rum, making it ideal for those seeking a unique spirit experience.

    A surprisingly good rum and despite the age it's a very dark rum in the glass. Very little fruit in there but wood and caramel mixed really well with the spices. Surprisingly smooth actually.

    Ein fruchtiger und würziger Rum aus Venezuela mit ordentlich Fasseinfluss. In der Nase viele rote Früchte,Karamell, etwas Holz und Gewürze. Im Mund profitiert das Destillat von einer fruchtigen Vollmundigkeit, den Fassnoten und den feinen Tönen von Kaffee, die mich oft an Kolumbianischen Rum erinnern. Der mittellange Abgang ist angenehm würzig, fruchtig und wird von leichten Schwarzteenoten begleitet. Das Preisleistungsverhältnis ist sehr gut und die Tolle Farbe aus dem Fass macht ebenfalls eine gute Figur.

    Ein leckerer und aufgrund der Alkoholstärke sehr entspannt zu trinkender Rum aus Venezuela. Vereinzelt kommen dunkle Steinfruchtnoten durch, ansonsten dominiert das stark ausgebrannte Fass das Aromenbild. Verkohlte Eichenwürze mit leicht holzrauchigen Anklängen, angebrannter Karamell, Schokolade und Kaffee sind federführend und werden ergänzt von einer feinen Rosinensüße sowie ein wenig Vanille.

    Sehr entspannter Rum und aufgrund der Verdünnung einfach zu trinken. Das Portwein-Fass ist deutlich zu erkennen, ansonsten das typische Profil eines Spaniers. Mir ist der Rum am Ende deutlich zu dünn und zu langweilig, auch der Abgang ist ziemlich kurz.
