A little too weak in my opinion except for the tobacco taste.

Once again, I have to repeat myself. Nice starting rum. Nice after vanilla pudding. But unfortunately too diluted. And accordingly much too flat and too short

Distillation: Column still Aging: Tropical 7-12 Nose: Mild and doesn’t tell you much but without being unpleasant. Palate: The attack is absolutely delectable. Like a creamy vanilla butterscotch brandy type flavor that rises high and strong on the first instance. Incredible. This is followed by a smooth-as-can-be rounded rum flavor. St Lucia rums are known for their silkiness and this one fits the bill in that regard. But boy, that attack flavor is really something to write home about. Finish: Average to long finish that is a gentle flavor wave of continuance, not much new but what is there is very good indeed. Recommended. The first attack flavor alone is worth the price of admission.

Strong and woody. Long taste, not too sweet.

Ex bourbon and that comes through in spades. Nose is light with raisin and oak. Mouth comes through fast with vanilla and caramel fading quickly to raisin and healthy amounts of oak and barrel influence. Finish is dry and barrel led with more ok and medium length. It’s a solid column still rum, a bit of light funk and good well balanced bourbon cask rum. Not exceptional but solid sipper

In the nose the woody side comes after a good aeration, also no it is a very fruity side which invades and titillates your nostrils. In mouth it is rather flat, we have a light and fruity smoked side.

C'est bien fait sur le boisé et le tabac mais ça manque de relief 🙂🙂

Strong oaky/varnish smell. Prunes and raisins all the way. The finish is longggggg. I still have the taste in mouth 20 minutes after the tasting. It definitely has character.

I thought it would be less sweet but it is quite sweet. That was a surprise. It is good though. It is nicely balanced full-bodied taste. On the 👅 with vanilla, cocoa, chocolate and raisins. A lot of spiciness with peppery undertones. Short to medium finish.

A really good smell of fruits like raisins. However it’s barely noticed in the actual taste. All around very smooth to drink.

Nase, Gaumen, Abgang= Holz, Holzwürze. Recht eindimensional, wenngleich ein wenig milder und vollmundiger bei gleichzeitig deutlich längerem Abgang als der Princess. Belegt Zunge/Gaumen. Auch dieser ist etwas für Puristen.

A beautiful representation of at Lucia column still and the capacity of flavours it can produce. 12 year old rum that's deep in oak
