The "Sample X Sample Eleven Special Edition (Salon du Rhum)" by The Rum Mercenary & Kintra offers an intriguing profile with prominent notes of grapes, herbal, and subtle funkiness on the nose, against an alcoholic and sour backdrop.

This limited Caribbean rum, with its unique blend of Guyana, Barbados, and Spanish influences, delivers exceptional value and a complex tasting journey. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking a robust and flavorful cask strength rum at 62.2% ABV. Limited to 380 bottles.

“Guyana clearly dominates the nose. Beautiful dark notes of plum, pear and wood. Overall very round, soft and pleasing. In the mouth, the alcohol is appropriate for the 62.2%, but is surprising given the gentle nose. Picks me up!”

“I don't know if my sample is not quite right, but there are such clear off-notes of earth, moss and mold that I can hardly drink it. The alcohol is also very poorly integrated!”

“Very alcoholic in the nose. Needs time. French oak comes through. After the alcohol fades away it's a very decent drop. Less Jamaican driven than the normal "eleven". More Foursquare/panama driven.”
