    How does this rum taste?

    The S.B.S Fiji 2004 is a distinguished limited-release rum crafted in Fiji, aged for 18 years and bottled at an impressive 68.3% ABV by 1423 World Class Spirits. Made from molasses using a pot still, this rum is noted for its complex aroma of caramel, coconut, and vanilla, although its high alcohol content is noticeable. Despite its strength, many find it surprisingly smooth and oily, with coconut and caramel elements being dominant on the palate. While it provides a long-lasting finish, it can be somewhat unbalanced, leading to mixed impressions. It's ideal for those seeking an intense, vibrant experience, albeit not the typical Fiji funk some expect.

    Messeverkostung, daher knapper: Nase hat Schokolade, Kaffee und Kokos. Im Mund sehr dick, etwas ölig und fruchtiger. Sehr ausgewogen.

    Surprisingly mild and oily for just under 69%. Aromatically, I would be blind to Barbados or Guatemala. But really tasty and felt eternal finish.

    Even if this is not a typical Fiji rum, the quality of the rum is on a good level. However, connoisseurs looking for the classic Fiji profile should consider other bottlings.

    Surprisingly good, I had to check twice to make sure I poured myself the correct sample. Blind I would have guessed this as a Worthy Park. Water is mandatory.
