Even as I poured it into the glass.... thought uhhh ?? Foursquare, Bourbon? Barbados? Blindly I would never have assigned it to Chairmans. Nose very chocolaty, woody, vanilla and caramel...gaaaaaanz in the background and after at least 20min in the glass some dried fruits come through. On the palate the same game but with the addition of a great spiciness of roasted nuts and vanilla from the wood. Very heavy and palatable.
A warm nose with overripe pineapple and banana, glue and alcohol that could be a little better integrated. Sweetness (burnt caramel) and freshness also in the background. The aromas, after the development of the alcohol, develop and become more powerful, with toasty, vanilla wood and tropical fruits that are less ripe than on the nose. The palate, with its power, minty freshness and balance, is far more beautiful than expected. Then the aromas diminish, leaving warm, bitter caramel and surprising freshness on the palate. A very fine rum, quite complex, fresh and deep.
Reminds - as already mentioned in several reviews - very strongly of a Foursquare. This makes it quite accessible and without the "dirty" notes familiar from other bottlings. It still suits my taste. Alcohol is very well integrated.
The Saint Lucias have a huge variety of flavors...this Chairman's for me has an ester/solvent flavor throughout, combined with roasted nuts and a slight salty spicy note. And always some vanilla in the background... wonderful
