    How does this rum taste?

    Reviewers rave about its expressive, fruity nose—tropical fruit, orange peel and a characteristic glue/polish—backed by woody depth. Distilled at Diamond in 1998 and aged 24 years, it drinks softly for 49.1% with spicy, herbal, yellow-fruit flavors. Expect a drier, wood‑led finish with light bitterness; a few find it thin or slightly unbalanced. A popular release on RumX with 51 reviews and strong buyer confidence.

    Lovechild from 2010 Moneymusk MBS & 2006 Foursquare! Super mild & relaxed. Lots of honey, light fresh herbs like lemon verbena and some milk chocolate, as well as kumquat jam and toasted coconut chips. Could be a little more powerful but on the whole it is very tasty and elegant!

    Third place within the new trio. The three rums are all well distinguishable from each other, each has a peculiarity. This one I felt somehow "off", as if there was something wrong with him or something was added to him. But you could also say, he has an unmistakable, strong character.Unfortunately, I can not say what irritated me so. I must probably taste again.

    Nose is very nice with loads of coconut (akin to Foursquare) and pineapple. Acompanied by some light notes of citrus zests. Despite its long topical aging, this is very lively and vibrant. Much more wood forwards and dry on the palate. Some dried fruits and herbal notes are lingering in the background. Finish is very dry and adstringent yet not overly bitter.

    #4265 16.09.2023 Whisky N Rum Show 2023. I didn't try that many rums on site, but I did manage to taste the last two ot the Last Casks. I still think they're too expensive compared to what you get. This one is a bit more fruity but then has more medicinal and glue notes. The palate is light light and fruity with some added herbal notes. The finish is medium long with some roasted wood, citrus and light coffee. I noticed that the empty glass has some nice caramel notes.
